FF16 release date: When is Final Fantasy XVI coming out?
Final Fantasy is one of the oldest and most beloved franchises in gaming, releasing a whopping 15 mainline entries, not to mention several spin-offs, remasters and Kingdom Hearts crossovers.
With FF15 launching all the way back in 2016, fans are understandably looking towards the next entry in the long-running series — and luckily, we have some good news.
As well as the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, FF16 is still very much on its way. Here’s everything you need to know.
When is the FF16 release date?
FF16 will be released in summer 2023. The launch window was confirmed in a trailer at the June 2022 Playstation State of Play event.
There’s no exact date just yet, but we expect to hear more information on the game as we near its release.
Can I pre-order FF16?
Yes! FF16 is not available at all retailers just yet, but you can pre-order from GAME. As more places put their product pages up, we’ll be sure to update this page with more links.

Which consoles and platforms can play FF16?
Unsurprisingly, FF16 will be available on PS5.
Confusingly, FF16 was originally announced for PC also, only for any mention of a PC release to be later removed. It is possible that FF16 is a timed exclusive and will launch on PC later like Final Fantasy 7 Remake, but for now, the long-awaited game is only officially confirmed for PS5.
FF16 gameplay and story details
Square Enix.
Harking back to the franchise’s roots, FF16 will be set in a medieval fantasy world.
The realm in question this time is Valisthea, which is made up of six kingdoms: Crystalline Dominion, Dhalmekian Republic, Grand Duchy of Rosaria, Holy Empire of Sanbreque, Iron Kingdom, and Kingdom of Waloed. The people of Valisthea live in peace thanks to the surrounding mountains of crystals called Mothercrystals, despite the presence of Eikons — summoned monsters controlled by or manifesting through humans.
Clive Rosfield, son of the Archduke of Rosaria, is the game’s protagonist and First Shield of Rosaria. With help from his brother Joshua Rosfield and step-sister Jill Warrick, Clive embarks on a quest for vengeance after a tragic encounter with the dark Eikon Ifrit.
Not much gameplay has been revealed other than snippets in the trailer, but it involves a combination of melee-based attacks as well as magic. On the Final Fantasy XVI website, producer Naoki Yoshida has hinted that the title’s unique gameplay will include «high-octane battles featuring our protagonist Clive Rosfield wielding a full arsenal of attacks unique to the game’s many Eikons» as well as «epic clashes between the Eikons themselves that put you right in the action».
Is there a FF16 trailer?
Yes! It’s rather cinematic, too. Take a look below to get yourself acquainted with the game before the FF16 release date is confirmed.

Since FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn, the second MMO in the FINAL FANTASY series, was released on PC and PS3 , over 1.
5 million accounts have been registered and filled over 60 worlds with a living, breathing community. And since then, PS4 has been released, and over 4 million of you have welcomed it into your homes. But admit it – you felt that something was missing, didn’t you?
FINAL FANTASY and PlayStation have been a dream team since the early days, and good friendships never die. So we’re happy to announce that FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn will give PS4 players the chance to explore the fantastic realm of Eorzea. Starting with the beta on 22nd February, every PS4 owner will be able to participate right away, leading to the launch on 14th April!
But that’s not all that will be ready. What would Final Fantasy be without a sumptuous Collector’s Edition? If you want to know more – read on!
You will defend the realm of Eorzea against a smorgasbord of enemies – no, I’m not even kidding, you should be happy if something doesn’t constantly try to snap you in half or just save itself the trouble and swallow you whole to begin with.
In a world like this, an adventurer needs any help he can find.
And instead of the standard version, which gets you the game and 30 days of game time, there’s also a unique Collector’s Edition, which will look great in your collection and features art, music and movies you can proudly show off to your friends, but also offers you the support every professional adventurer needs in the form of in-game items!
The Collector’s Edition contains these physical items:
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn exclusive box
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn artbook – The Art of Eorzea: A Realm Reimagined
- FINAL FANTASY XIV Seventh Umbral Era movie disc – The Waning of the Sixth Sun
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn soundtrack – The Sounds of Eorzea
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn art card set
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn themed security token
As well as some sweet, sweet in-game items:
- Fat Chocobo Mount
- Coeurl Mount
- Behemoth Barding for your Chocobo Mount
- Wind-Up Moogle Minion
- Baby Behemoth Companion
- Helm of Light (increases your earned experience by 20% until level 10!)
My personal favourite? The Fat Chocobo Mount! Ample, soft space to sit on, huggable, and even when you’re trapped in an icy chasm, you can be sure that he’ll find his way to your next meal – even if he has to peck himself through 50 yalms of pure ice, dangit! The true survivalist’s choice.
So, what are you waiting for? The pre-orders start now! Just have a look on our product page, where you can find a few retailers offering it. And if you’re still not convinced, keep your eyes peeled on this space, we’ve soon got more to share!

year ! You can also admire the new key art of the project, which depicts one
one of the most recognizable antagonists in video game history.
Final Fantasy VII Remake was announced at E3 in
2015. Since then, the project managed to change the development team, and
game designer Tetsuya Nomura made fans a bit
nervous, saying that the title was announced a little earlier than
should. Now, the fate of the remake of the cult role-playing game is not
worth worrying about. At the upcoming Square Enix conference they promise
reveal new project details, and as you count down the hours to
the beginning of the broadcast, you can once again watch the latest trailer from
gameplay demonstration:
We, in turn, remind you that the remake will be divided into
several episodes, each of which, according to the developers,
pulls on a full game.
Therefore, it is possible with complete certainty
say that the announced release date is relevant only for the first
chapters of Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Wow, 20th year with Cyberpunk and Endgame! Bliss!
Here it is — the best game of 2020!)
Yokushiro , yes, times are different now.
Nei , here you are right, times are different. Too much now

Final Fantasy 15 says hello.
The phrase «split into several episodes» still scares me.

Suldimor Well, not really. Many of course parts, but this

In FF7 Remake it looks like us
they are preparing something like games from Telltale Games.
From the principle of skidos I will take. Had not broken the game, took
without hesitation at the start.

I won’t buy it either until it’s released. No reason 1/3

The squares themselves said that the episodic system did not
justified. But no, they continue to release LiS2, and now also FF7
episodes. I wonder what will happen to the price, at 4k per episode?
oh, goodness then!
Message from Baolaopaul
Now about the fate of the remake of the cult role-playing
games don’t have to worry.
I mean, don’t worry!? I just worry more
began.
Again, what have they been doing for 5 years… Creating one
the first episode, which includes only the first part of Midgar.
For at least these 5 years we have been fed one and
the same game moment. Midgar, scorpion, mako reactor. And in
in general … everything Neither you Tifa, nor you Don Corneo. But Aeris and
Barret is shown in every video.
Incomprehensibly shorter…
Gohapsp , after the release of KX3, the game began to pay more attention
and probably time. Now Skvare will start promoting the remake and
activates additional development resources. I used to think
that the project will not live to see the release at all (or I will not live to see it
release), but now,
The patient appears to be alive. And personally, I don’t want much
everything was shown. That’s the kind of person I am, I’m afraid of spoilers like fire)
There were already faces in which they talked about the main characters:
Yuffie, Vincent, Red. And they won’t leave us without Tifa either.
Baolaopaul , Kh4 is very good. In vain I fell for the review
Now I’m even more worried about the remake of FF VII
BigDogRule , so after the 15th final it was already clear
what will be KX3 …
I hope the story from the Crisis core will be stuffed into a remake. Oh how I hope…
March 2020… how long and I hope they do it well, but without
options … waiting …
A good reason to touch the legend! Not in the original game
played.
I only watched the feature film «Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children» (2005)
+ attaching the first trailer for the remake, maybe someone missed it:
Bremmy , play it. The game is good.
I wonder what will happen with localization to our Orthodox.
Neither cold nor hot… The classic game lives on perfectly on my
PSP, another option is to download on PS4. Maybe one day,
at a big discount and with Russian subtitles — I will be tempted to buy and
plunge headlong into resurrection of Iris !

Phenomenal. Against the Storm Review (Early Version)
Just a few games turned out to be enough to understand that he fell into skillfully placed snares and will not get out of them soon. The Against the Storm project deftly manipulates the minds of strategy lovers with a unique gameplay that immerses you in the world of endless settlement developments and the eternal cataclysm that erases them. Hope only for the invincibility of the Smoldering City and the mercy of the queen.
A love letter to classic horror. Signalis Review
The game from a microscopic team from Germany, thanks to familiar mechanics, is hard not to compare with the legendary Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
And the art, similar to the work of revered mangakas, vague borrowings from cult media products and the attention of maestro Guillermo del Toro frankly scream — the developers have prepared an exquisite delicacy. But I won’t try it all.

What has been changed and how. Norse mythology in God of War: Ragnarok
The relaunch of the God of War franchise is based on Norse mythology. The developers took something straight from the poems of Samund the Wise and Snorri Sturluson — Elder and Younger Edd. But they came up with a lot of their own, making the mythology of the northern peoples even richer. In this article, we will figure out what events took place in the canonical verses and what Santa-Monica changed in God of War.
