Square Enix has announced that the PC version of Final Fantasy XVI will be released next month, on 17 September 2024, via Steam and Epic Games Store. Also they've released a demo today.
Final Fantasy XVI introduces players to an all-new story in the Final Fantasy universe, an epic dark fantasy that takes place in the realms of Valisthea – a land blessed in the light of the Mothercrystals, and where peace falters as the spread of the Blight threatens to destroy their dominions. The fate of the land is decided by the Eikons, mighty summoned beasts and their Dominants, men and women who have been blessed with the ability to call upon and wield them. This is the tale of Clive Rosfield, a warrior granted the title “First Shield of Rosaria” and sworn to protect his younger brother Joshua, the Dominant of the Phoenix, Eikon of Fire. Before long, Clive will be caught up in a great tragedy and swear revenge on the Dark Eikon known as Ifrit, a mysterious entity that brings calamity in its wake.
The PC version will be available in two versions: Standard Edition (€ 49.99 EUR / $ 49.99 USD) which contains the base game and Complete Edition (€ 69.99 EUR / $ 69.99 USD) which also includes the DLC chapters "Echoes of the Fallen" and “The Rising Tide". You can download the demo from Steam or Epic Games Store.
