Final Fantasy 16 is the latest installment of the Final Fantasy series. The game's producer, Naoki Yoshida, explains that the game focuses on regaining players' trust after the mixed reception of the previous game. The story is inspired by fantasy series such as Game of Thrones and encourages players to think about taking better care of the planet. Naoki Yoshida hopes that through this entertainment, players can gain something and feel something.

Aoife Wilson reviewed FF16 for the Eurogamer YouTube and says that the ecological themes of the series are evident. The first game was released in 1987 and the series has sold an estimated 173 million copies. The series is unique because each game's setting is independent of the others. According to Wilson, this approach keeps the series relevant and allows players to play any game without having played the previous ones.

The Final Fantasy games require patience and reward players for their investment. FF16 has a lot of work to do to attract players who are not already fans of the series. However, its tone, distinctive aesthetic, and the enjoyable battles with its scenery give clear points of difference. Wilson says that this release is the first of the series in quite some time that she believes has the opportunity to stand out and can be recommended to almost everyone interested in games.
Final Fantasy 16 is a title that requires a serious investment of time to get the most out of it. The success of similar releases like Zelda, Elden Ring, and Hogwarts Legacy recently shows that this shouldn't be a barrier to success. Its creators hope that it won't be just fans of the series who will be willing to go the distance.
Final Fantasy 16 releases on Thursday, June 22.
