Final Fantasy XVI would be "coming sooner than people do not think it" because he has been under development for 4 years

The game has been announced during the latest PLAYSTATION showcase and has been confirmed as an exclusivity of the PS5 console also available on PC.

It was reported that it would go out on Xbox Series X | S and PC in one year after the original launch date, but this has not been confirmed yet.

On the basis of the information collected by Schreier, and revealed on the Triple Clic Podcast, the next main title of the RPG series should "arrive earlier than people do not think."

The revelation trailer closed without giving an appropriate output window, so it was almost certain that it would not be out shortly.
