The trailer focuses on characters and story cutscenes, but it also shows glimpses of gameplay.
We get to see the heroes and antagonists we’ll meet in the realm of Valisthea and the “dominants,” men and women blessed with the ability to summon a “dread power, which is unlike anything ever seen in the series.”
We also get the introduction of two new characters, starting with Dion Lesage.
We also meet Barnabas Tharmr.
You can check out the trailer below, both in English and Japanese, depending on your preference in voice-overs, alongside the artwork for the two new characters.
The accompanying press release also included a comment from producer Naoki Yoshida.
Director Hiroki Sakai also commented, mentioning that the game is getting closer to completion and the team is working on debugging and final adjustments.
Final Fantasy 16 has a release window in Summer 2023 for PS5.
Final Fantasy XVI is described as a temporary console exclusive for PS5, which means that a PC release is also likely. The PS5 console exclusivity has also been explicitly described as temporary when the game was originally announced.
