Hammerhead

FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION guide · Chapter 1

Hammerhead is an outpost and service station in the Leide region where Noctis and his companions push the broken-down Regalia at the start of Chapter 1. Cindy Aurum assists with repairing the car while sending the party on several introductory errands, and Cid Sophiar is introduced as a mechanic who can upgrade weapons. The area serves as the party's initial home base, offering rest facilities, early-game hunts, and various shops to prepare for exploration.
