We are pleased to announce that a new trailer for FINAL FANTASY XVI was released at The Game Awards 2022, representing the latest standalone chapter in the acclaimed FINAL FANTASY series, FINAL FANTASY XVI will be unveiled on June 22, 2023!
“FINAL FANTASY XVI” will take us to an epic dark fantasy world. The story takes place in Valishjaya which is protected by the Crystal Mother. The peace has been shaken due to the threat of the land being engulfed by the spreading darkness of the area. Powerful summoned beasts and demonstrators who possess the power to appear and guide summoned beasts will determine the fate of this land.
This is the story of Clive Rosfeld, the warrior called “Chief Knight of Rozaria”, who is sworn to protect his younger brother Joshua, who is also the manifestation of the Phoenix, the summoned fiery beast. Before long, Clive will meet a terrible tragedy and vow to avenge the summoned beast Black Ifrit, and a major disaster will befall due to the awakening of this mysterious being.
The latest trailer for “REVENGE” delves into why protagonist Clive Rodsfeld’s revenge is so intense.
Engage in climactic battles and unleash the mighty power of your summoned beasts
“FINAL FANTASY XVI” is the first full action RPG in the “FINAL FANTASY” series. It is specially designed for PS5 and contains a unique battle system. During combat, you can not only integrate the power of the summoned beasts into swordsmanship, but also control the summoning of the beast itself! Swap Clive’s summoning abilities and manifest them as summons against each other in fast-paced real-time action battles. Some of the new systems introduced in this game can be found in the trailer above. Take a deep dive below and find out how this new content will help you shoot (among other things)!
Epic battle
When you face hostile protesters, an epic battle of summoned beasts is about to begin!

Clive will use the power of many summoned beasts in exciting battles!
play at your leisure
Whether you’re a seasoned action gamer or someone who just wants to enjoy the story, Clive’s Adventures can be enjoyed by anyone with a plethora of accessibility options.
We have added a story-driven mode, which is recommended for players who are not used to action games and for those who want to focus more on the story elements of the game. In this mode, Clive automatically dodges certain attacks and can activate epic combos from summoned beasts with the press of a button. In the action-focused mode, Clive’s every move is controlled by the player and is a good choice for those who are confident in their abilities or want to challenge themselves!
hero friend
Enter trusty Torgar.
Torgal was another northern loner who was taken in by the Rosfeld family. During one of the expeditions to the freezing north, Grand Duke Erwin found Torgal alone in the snow and brought him back to his son. Torgal survived Rosfed’s near-extinction and was reunited with Clive more than a decade later, still as loyal to his master as ever.
Clive’s faithful love wolf, Torgal, never leaves his side in battle, nor flinches when the enemy closes. Torgal can not only attack the enemy, but also heal Clive’s wounds. As long as Clive gives orders at the right time, the two can become powerful partners.
The more the better
Because sometimes fighting fate isn’t just one person’s responsibility.
At certain turning points in his adventures, Clive’s party will be joined by some reliable allies who will fight alongside him, and these party members will change combinations as the story progresses. Unlike Torgal, these party members do not directly follow the player’s command, but instead automatically fight when they see enemies.
One of the team members is Sidfas Telamon, nicknamed “Sid” by his friends, he was originally a soldier and later became an outlaw. He is dedicated to creating a place where anyone can die with dignity for persecuted (gifted) magic users and exploited manifests. He is good at mechanical engineering, and for the survival needs of himself and the organization members who are also heretics, he undertakes to study the method of living in the dark area. Sid is also a protester and shortly after arriving in Valishjea, the power of the Ramu summoned in his body was awakened. Undoubtedly, it was also this power that made him emerge in the army of the Kingdom of Volud, and for this he met that Benedida Herman…
