"Final Fantasy XV" is on a world similar to our Earth. It is chaos everywhere except in a nation called Lucis, being governed by the Crown Prince of the Kingdom, Noctis Lucis. Crystals are sought after in this world, and it has been depleted except in the kingdom of Noctis. Niflheim invades Lucis while an ongoing peace negotiation is being held. Noctis was driven out of the kingdom and is on the run. The crown prince is planning to rescue his kingdom and the crystals. Lucis is being protected by a crystal being held by Nocti's father, King Regis.
With the help of the crystal, King Regis created a magical barrier to help protect Lucis, but the spell is consuming the King's health. The weakened state of the King puts all of them in a jeopardized position, while the Niflheim forces are determined to get Lucis, as reported by IGN.
