Forums - Gaming - Final Fantasy XVI releasing in 2021 (PS5) OPM

I'm half surprised it won't coming around 2023 or so.

Friendly reminder for those unaware, but at the end of the original FFXVI trailer in tiny letters under the huge "Playstation console exclusive" text, was "also available on PC"

Well it's much earlier than I would expect. So I'm pretty happy.

Square Enix later removed that mention. It has been clarified that the game will be PlayStation 5 exclusive for the first 6 months, after which it can come out on non console platforms (obviously PC). It will remain a PS5 console exclusive for 12 months, after which it can release on other consoles.

Also missing: timed exclusive. 



I just checked the source and it says nothing about 2021. Maybe they changed it.

It says: "It's official: Final Fantasy 16 is coming soon and it's only on PS5."

Let's hope so. I thought I saw 2021 in the title of the reveal trailer, so I already expected this.



Can't wait to get it as an EGS exclusive in 2022.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I still think FF16 will be early 2022. Would love to be proven wrong. 



No surprise here. Exactly what I was expecting. The game HAS been in development for since 2016.

Yeah, it just says "coming soon", which means it could come out in 2021, but we can't really say it's confirmed.
