** [http://cdn.sqexeu.com/files/ff15/main_site/public/novella/FFXV_Novel_ENG.pdf This is an official novella set before the day Noctis leaves Insomnia prior to the start of the plot]

** The ''Final Fantasy XV Complete Official Guide'', like many others, has supplemental material never mentioned in the game itself,like the name of Noctis' mother.

** You need to watch the anime ''Brotherhood'' for character backstory detail and the CGI movie ''Kingsglaive'' for the full story of the political stuff that leads to Insomnia getting invaded and conquered.

* [[Altum Videtur]]: You can't swing a dead cat without running into something with a Latin name in this game.

* [[American Kirby Is Hardcore]]: The Japanese cover is pretty laid back and chill, with the whole "four guys on a road trip" prominently feature. The American version has them prepared for battle.

* [[Shotgun Wedding]]: Noctis' is practically drafted into marrying Lunafreya. Given he already loves her, it's a [[Perfectly Arranged Marriage]], so he's just fine with that, as is she. {{spoiler|Too bad for both it was a ruse at their expense}}.

* [[Spiritual Successor]]: This game bears a lot of similar themes as ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'', including an [[The Empire|empire]] with [[Magitek]] weapons, a Kefka-esque villain, and even a "World of Ruin", {{spoiler|which basically Eos after the Eternal Night falls on it}}.

* [[Warp Whistle]]: The game has a limited form of fast travel mechanics.

** The Regalia allows the player to do this to quest locations or at least close to their general area as well to outposts. They can also, while on foot, teleport back to where they parked the car.

* [[Wide Open Sandbox]]: After the first few chapters the world is yours to explore in ever widening extremes. It becomes far more linear by the end of the game, though.

* [[A Wizard Did It]]: Several elements of the in-universe physics make no sense without this trope.

** The sun rises and falls in accordance with a "wizard" called the Oracle making sure it happens, but their effectiveness decreases over time by the start of the game thanks to meddling of another "wizard". {{spoiler|The daemons the Niflheim Empire produce basically cause excess work for the Oracle's powers, reducing the amount of time the sun stays up.}}

** To make any sort of sense how the sun works at ALL, it works like the real world, except you have to factor in the above mentioned for the VISIBILITY of the sun. The actual sun otherwise functions like it does in the real world save for this.

** Havens tend to be monster safe despite the time of day, implied to be because, if you pay attention, they are infused with magical properties similar to the sun itself.

** The planet itself is more self repairing of damage to itself, like from magic, than it ever would be in [[Real Life]], essentially due to this trope.

* [[Work Off the Debt]]: Cid purposely stiffs the party for the Regalia repair bill in the beginning, incensed over how they let it break down.

* [[The X of Y]]: The Royal Weapons all have this naming scheme, since they are supposed to be special to the original owner.

* [[You Don't Look Like You]]: While the anime and even ''Pocket Edition'' try to remain consistent to the game itself despite their differences in format, the ''Kingsglaive'' CGI movie is pretty bad at remaining consistent artstyle wise to the game. In fact, only Regis generally looks like his game version.
