Despite one-button battles and ridiculous length, Episode Ignis is the best DLC for Final Fantasy XV with an excellent story, beautiful music, great dynamics and touching scenes, where title character portraited much better than in the main game.

Episode Ignis is far from a perfect dish, but with plenty of seasoning in the pot, it's possibly the tastiest of the bunch, and adds some much needed flavour to the main game.
Easily the best DLC episode for Final Fantasy XV, although not without its blemishes.
Episode Ignis is the best DLC of Noctis's three friends, presenting us with an excellent soundtrack, a gameplay with new and functional mechanics, an interesting story and even an alternate ending. The downsides are the duration and basically the lack of new enemies.
Episode Ignis tells a well-made and, at times, emotional story with decent gameplay that only suffers from some unnecessary padding and some goofy voice-work.
