"The hegemony of crystals has controlled the destiny of the world for too long"

​

PC & PS5
Lead by Naoki Yoshida
Hiroshi Takai is directing
More information in 2021
The Summons, which are obviously making a comeback, seem to be tied to human avatars that can free them. A power that requires the presence of a protector and it is this protector that the player seems to have to embody in Final Fantasy XVI

 

[Irobot82]

Also on PC YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Max_Po]

PS5 exclusive... and PC


HOOOOOGGGEEEE

 

[azz0r]

Playstation 5 exclusive

 

[Johnny Silver]

Getting FFXII vibes with this game.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Exclusive is a huge deal but not surprising.

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

Shit.... exclusive to ps5! Sony is ready to win!

 

[Northeastmonk]

Holy crapballs! Final Fantasy goes back to being a Sony exclusive (again).

 

[Elcid]

Fuck me. That was amazing. My asshole is still pulsating.

 

[diffusionx]

PS5 exclusive... and PC


HOOOOOGGGEEEE

Square just shot themselves in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase FFXVI for either system, nor will they purchase any of Square's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.

Square, publicly apologize and announce FFXVI for Xbox or you can kiss your business goodbye.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

MEGATON

CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE

 

[lestar]

can't wait to 2027 to play it on PS6!

 

[BlueXImpulse]

Shit that it was Pc footage but it being console exclusive made up for it

 

[Dr Bass]

Looked like it could be good. I might be in.

 

[ZeroZeroQuatre]

Wow... I kept wondering if this was a new FF14 extension...
It didn't feel next-gen at all. Not impressed

 

[Timberwolf25]

Coming to PC as well, so no big whoop.

 

[LordCBH]

I’ve been BEGGING for a knights and wizards medieval style setting to come back to FF for forever, so I’m super fucking excited!

 

[TintoConCasera]

Cool to see they are back to medieval times. Didn't liked the boy band and audi segments of the last one. ^^u

 

[D.Final]

Hype

 

[TTOOLL]

The setting looked AMAZING!!! Combat too!!

 

[Kimahri]

Uh... Not sure. I'm embarrassed to admit that for half the video I thought it was FFXIV.

I dunno, I like it being medieval again, but it just looked so... Generic. No style of its own. I've never been this lukewarm to a FF reveal. Feels weird.

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

.

 

[ebevan91]

Love that they're going back to medieval type setting.

 

[Aion002]

Damn.... Sony must have spent a shit ton on this console exclusivity....


Impressive!


Also, the game artsyle reminds me sooo much of FFXIV! Soooooo HYPED!

 

[brap]

Fuck this british shit. Oi bruv fancy a ciggy innit. Mans save the queen but not he fookin teef.

 

[Solrac]

DMC VI you said ?

 

[Bkdk]

I'll say I'm looking forward to ff7-r part 2 far more than ff16 so far, nothing from that is impressive, especially not the swordfighting. I swear it's just a spinoff until FF16 shows up and I'm in shocked of how mediocre that is.

 

[and 3 others]

I'll wait for a rewatch on non potato stream before I pass judgment.

 

[ULTROS!]

So excited.

So it's by Naoki Yoshida's team?

Also logo looks very FFX.

 

[DJT123]

PC YASSSSSSSSSSS!

 

[Aggelos]

Damn.... Sony must have spent a shit ton on this console exclusivity....

Guys, people say how amazing the Xbox Series X hardware is (and MS must have spent a shitload of money to make the powerful warhorse of theirs),
but Sony, they've probably spent a shitload of money to get console exclusivities (PC versions are planned too you know), into the bargain (instead of just building a super powerful hardware only)

 

[DeltaPolarBear]

It's Square Enix. I rather that they keep things simple than to bite off more than they could chew. Sure, once upon a time they are famous for cutting edge graphics, but I don't want another FF13. If simpler graphics means I get a large and long story back, with functional airships and a proper adventure with towns and people and shops, then I would rather have that over running in a straight line in a corridor.

The ONLY winner in their war is PC Gamers.

no xbox is surprising

Just so you know, it’s by BD3, the team behind FFXIV. So you know it’s going to be a good FF.

 

[Evil Calvin]

Getting FFXII vibes with this game.

Yeah we need ANOTHER FF game like a hole in the head.

 

[Dthomp]

What a fucking decline of the series

Thank God for Dragon Quest

This man gets it. FF just isn’t the same game it was back when they were only on Sony systems before. It’s just another generic action/rpg more interested in selling dlc, they should have scooping DQ as their exclusive forever. much better franchise at this point

 

[NecrosaroIII]

From Software should sue Square. What a Dark Souls rip off.

 

[Malakhov]

Microsoft rep: we don't need exclusives

Sony: Here's ffvxi

Looked cross Gen to me. And I was astonished it wasn't running on a Ps5...

 

[JunkerWoland]

For what it's worth, I generally enjoyed my time with FFXV, but just from the trailer, FFXVI looks like what happens when a company spends around ten years trying to develop the title's predecessor.

 

[DJT123]

Microsoft rep: we don't need exclusives

Sony: Here's ffvxi

It's not exclusive.

 

[Andodalf]

Shotinfootpasta

 

[Malakhov]

It's not exclusive.

It is for consoles, sorry microsoft

 

[Dregnel]

it looks like a FFXV mod, sorry.

 

[cireza]

Console exclusive. That's quite brutal.

That rumor was true in the end. Gee, that's SFV all over again.

Edit: lol it's not exclusive after all. WTF Sony !

 

[H-I-M]

Exclusively NOT on Xbox.

 

[and 3 others]

Looked cross Gen to me. And I was astonished it wasn't running on a Ps5...

Not ported yet maybe?

where is the original quote from?

 

[DJT123]

I'm intrigued by the dark setting. If they keep this contained and are consistent with their writing

It is for consoles, sorry microsoft

If that's the way you're calling it Microsoft have a shitton of exclusives.
