Which Tekken 7 guest fighter is the prince of Lucis from Final Fantasy XV?

Noctis Lucis Caelum, the prince of Lucis from Final Fantasy XV, is a guest fighter in Tekken 7. He joined the roster as downloadable content and brought his distinctive teleporting weapon attacks and arsenal of royal arms into the fighting system.

Noctis was released on March 20, 2018, alongside the Hammerhead stage, which is based on the service station from Final Fantasy XV. His inclusion expanded Tekken 7’s crossover roster, which also featured Akuma from Street Fighter, Geese Howard from Fatal Fury, and Negan from The Walking Dead.

Noctis is often confused with other famous Final Fantasy protagonists. Cloud Strife is the hero of Final Fantasy VII, while Squall Leonhart stars in Final Fantasy VIII. Dante is not a Final Fantasy character at all; he is the protagonist of Capcom’s Devil May Cry series. Noctis’s royal identity and weapon summoning are central to his Final Fantasy XV characterization.
