It was delivered by Kotaku that Director Hajime Tabata explained as to why the four male protagonists of the series are all uniformed and dressed in black. He said that this is the official battle gear of the Kingdom of Lucis. Moreover, Noctis is originally part of the royal family whereas the other three characters are segments of different Lucian national organizations, each wearing the detailed type of battle dress that corresponds the stations that they are from.
Game Spot noted Tabata's elaboration of the color's significance to the Final Fantasy world. "In the Kingdom of Lucis where our heroes reside, the color black has historically been treated as a special color. Because of this, the attire of the royal family and those in occupations closely tied to them are unified by having black as a base coloring," he explained.
"This part of the lore is the reason why the outfits of all four main characters are black. For the finished game we also intend on having their clothing having effects in battle and not just being a part of the world and its background. So watch out for that too!"
