Square Enix just revealed Final Fantasy XVI during the PlayStation 5 Showcase.

It opened the livestream show. Have a look below.

The reveal trailer started by saying that “the following content is captured on PC emulating the PS5 experience”.

After the trailer ended, it confims that Final Fantasy XVI will be a PS5 console exclusive. And since this is being run via PC, it will likely be available on PC just like what happened to Final Fantasy XV.

Story in development.
