Also present at the Game Awards 2022, Naoki ‘Yoshi-P’ Yoshida joined Geoff Keighley on stage to unveil a brand new trailer for Final Fantasy XVI. With a duration of 2 minutes 40 and called “Revenge”, the sequence skilfully mixes worked cut scenes and beat-up gameplay phases, all accompanied by a sublime soundtrack. In short, a great show to bring fans to their knees, the latter also having been able to discover the release date of the game. Final Fantasy XVI will therefore be released on June 22, 2023 on PS5.
For those who have already forgotten, we remind you that the game will allow you to follow the destiny of Emissaries who contain within them the power of the Primordials – which it is possible to see in action in the trailer, by the way. Odin, Shiva, Bahamut, Ifrit; here is an example of the deities to which it will be possible to appeal during the fights. A priori, pre-orders should start in the next few hours and give access to a number of in-game bonuses. Finally, in the past, Yoshida-san had let it be known that he and his teams would like to be able to deploy a demo a few months before the game’s release to maintain the hype around it. We will see.
