History Origins Īccording to Julien Merceron, the Worldwide Technology Director for Square Enix in the early 2010s, the concept for the new engine was born in 2011 while he was in the final stages of working on Final Fantasy XIII-2. The aim was to create new AAA video games for a global audience using the Luminous Engine. In early 2018, the development team of Final Fantasy XV was established by Square Enix as a new subsidiary studio dubbed Luminous Productions. The engine powered the tech demos Agni's Philosophy and Witch Chapter 0 initially, and has since been used in two of company's titles- Final Fantasy XV, an entry in their Final Fantasy franchise, and an original IP titled Forspoken. It was conceived during the development of Final Fantasy XIII-2 to be compatible with next generation consoles that their existing platform, Crystal Tools, could not handle.

The engine was developed for and targeted at eighth-generation hardware and DirectX 11-compatible platforms, such as Xbox One, the PlayStation 4, and versions of Microsoft Windows. Luminous Engine ( ルミナス・エンジン, Ruminasu Enjin), originally called Luminous Studio ( ルミナス・スタジオ, Ruminasu Sutajio), is a multi-platform game engine developed and used internally by Square Enix and later on by Luminous Productions.
