Final Fantasy XVI - PlayStation 5 Exclusive

Description

Square Enix hits hard with Final Fantasy XVI, a PS5-exclusive action RPG that marks a radical departure for the licence. Gone are the days of classic turn-based combat: this is all about nervous real-time combat, with spectacular summons that turn your screen into a Hollywood blockbuster.

The story follows Clive Rosfield in a dark medieval-fantasy world where the Eikons (legendary invocations) are at the heart of a complex political war. The mature storyline tackles uncompromisingly adult themes, a far cry from the usual teen JRPG. The boss battles against the Eikons are epic moments that make full use of the power of your PS5, with sequences worthy of an action film.

Developed by the Final Fantasy XIV, The game takes a more Western approach, while retaining the Japanese soul that gives FF its charm. A successful gamble that should reconcile old fans with new players.
