With an airship, "Final Fantasy 15" director Hajime Tabata revealed to Kotaku that "You can fly anywhere you'd like, but you need to find a road to land on."

"It's not 100% land anywhere, take off anywhere, fly everywhere, but we really wanted within the system we've created to give the player the freedom to fly as freely as possible, anywhere they could. There's a great level of freedom they can get from that," he continued.

"Final Fantasy 15" will be released Sept. 30 on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
