FinalFantasy16 is set to launch in the summer of 2023. Will the heroes of Valisthea rise up against an unknown villain? Here's everything we know so far.

Final Fantasy 16 is finally on its way. Two years after the initial teaser trailer, developer Square Enix dropped a brand new trailer that gives fans a worthwhile look at what the next entry in the long-running RPG series has to offer.

Further reading Release date With the release of a new trailer at Sony’s 2022 State of Play , Square Enix gave a release window of summer 2023 for Final Fantasy 16.Platforms It makes sense given the long history between the two companies and the fact that the game was revealed during a PlayStation 5 showcase that Final Fantasy 16 will be a timed console exclusive for the PS5. Unlike many other early PS5 titles, it appears that there will be no PS4 version of this game.

We know that Final Fantasy 16 will be going back to the more traditional fantasy roots of the series as opposed to the more recent games that had more modern or even futuristic elements to the worlds. The game will take place in Valisthea, which is broken up into six kingdoms: Grand Duchy of Rosaria, Holy Empire of Sanbreque, Kingdom of Waloed, Dhamekian Republic, Iron Kingdom, and Crystalline Dominion.

Perhaps taking a cue from the ending sequence of Final Fantasy 15, there also appears to be some time-period shift in the game’s plot since we see both a younger and much older version of Clive in the trailer. Perhaps the game will go back and forth between two time periods or simply have a time skip at some point.

The new trailer really focuses more on the gameplay, which looks even more action-focused than we suspected. Yoshida himself describes the game as having “high-octane battles,” which certainly looks to be the case. Aside from a HUD with a level number, HP bar, and what look like MP bars, the action looks almost more like a straight character-action game. Clive can launch, combo, and perform skills and abilities on the fly, leading to flashy, cinematic finishers.

We have also only seen Clive in battle up until now, but it would be a strange choice for there to not be a party system of some kind. Whether that means we can control more characters besides just Clive is yet to be known.

Car-free community in Tempe leases final retail spaceCuldesac, a 17-acre car-free community being built in Tempe, has leased out its final retail spot ahead of its opening later this year. This sounds great anywhere else it's not 120 in the summer Terrible location for this complex - I sure as hell wouldn’t want to live there. The only thing nearby is a post office. Gotta take the shitty light rail or an Uber anytime you wanna go somewhere. the CityOfPhoenixAZ kind has that same idea at 7th Avenue and McDowell! 'it be impossible getting into these restaurants? crowded, no parking, got to walk around the building.'
