Final Fantasy XVI shows its potential: latest trailer runs on PS5 in real-time
Naoki Yoshida, Final Fantasy XVI producer, assures that the game will demonstrate the power of PS5, something we already saw in its latest trailer, Revenge.
We can say it before closing 2022: Final Fantasy XVI is one of the most anticipated games of the coming year. The next installment directed by Naoki Yoshida maintains its steady course even in promotional materials. The creative has been adamant in pointing out what we can expect in graphic terms and takes "Revenge", its latest trailer, as an example.
"It’s all real-time rendering (the latest trailer) No loading! It’s become a game that is like, ‘Look at the power of the PS5!’, shared Yoshida during the latest livestream he starred in dedicated to Final Fantasy XIV. The conversation, in perfect Japanese, has been translated by user Genki_JPN on Twitter.
The trailer referred to by the creative is the one he showed to the public during the 2022 edition of The Game Awards, which you can watch at this link.
Final Fantasy XVI, one of the PS5 strongholds in 2023
The new numbered installment of the franchise will follow in the footsteps of Final Fantasy VII Remake, being that its debut on the market will be exclusive to PS5. The new generation of PlayStation deposits in Square Enix one of its dates marked for next year. To be more specific, it will arrive on June 22, 2023. Its full exclusivity will extend only for 6 months, so from 2024, we will be able to see it on other platforms.
“The Eikons are the most powerful and deadly creatures in Valisthea,” it can be read on the official description. “Each resides within a Dominant—a single man or woman who is blessed with the ability to call upon their dread power. In some nations these Dominants are treated as royalty in admiration of this strength—in others they are bound in fear of it, and forced to serve as weapons of war. Those who are born as Dominants cannot escape their fate, however cruel it may be.”
“The land of Valisthea is studded with Mothercrystals—glittering mountains of crystal that tower over the realms around them, blessing them with aether. For generations, people have flocked to these beacons to take advantage of their blessing, using the aether to conjure magicks that let them live lives of comfort and plenty. Great powers have grown up around each Mothercrystal, and an uneasy peace has long reigned between them. Yet now the peace falters as the spread of the Blight threatens to destroy their dominions.”
