New Final Fantasy XVI Footage
Square Enix E3 2021 Predictions
Speaking of Naoki Yoshida… he’s also the producer of Final Fantasy XVI and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him team up with director Hiroshi Takai at E3 to finally give us some extended footage of the next single-player Final Fantasy adventure.
We don’t know a ton about Final Fantasy XVI as of this moment. We know that it’s set in a more traditional “medieval” setting and that it will be an action-RPG. There will be a heavy focus on Eikons, and the role they play in creating a balance of power between factions in the in-game world of Valisthea. You play as Clive who is a solder that fiercely defends and protects his mysterious brother Joshua who appears to be a dominant — a person that has a connection with the Eikons.
Final Fantasy XVI isn’t top secret anymore so it would be incredibly odd for E3 to come and go and have the game not appear in any capacity. I’d be willing to wager that it’s further along than we think and that a 2022 release date wouldn’t be out of the question, although I would be surprised if a release date was announced, although that’s not entirely impossible either.
