Ready to jump into FINAL FANTASY XVI again without the urge to vomit? Now’s the time, as Square Enix has rolled out a new update for the new action RPG that includes a number of highly requested fixes, including a slider that allows players to adjust the intensity of motion blur —a problem that critics have been complaining about since the release of the game’s demo. Users will also find camera sensitivity changes, options for new controller layouts, and more in the new patch.
FINAL FANTASY XVI Update 1.03 Changes
- Adds the following items to the System tab of the Main Menu:
- Motion Blur Strength
- Allows the player to adjust the strength of the motion blur effect when the character or camera is in motion. The default setting is the maximum of 5. This can be lowered to reduce the strength of the motion blur effect, or set to 0 to turn it off completely.
- Player Follow (Movement)
- Player Follow (Attack)
- Turning these settings off prevents the camera from automatically following the player while moving and attacking respectively.
- Changes the maximum setting of the Camera Sensitivity (Horizontal) and Camera Sensitivity (Vertical) items from 10 to 20.
- Adds three new controller layouts: types D, E, and F.
- Corrects an issue that affected the stability of some menus.
- Corrects some text issues.
- Adds the hashtag #FF16 when sharing screenshots or video clips on Twitter or YouTube.
We announced the release of update 1.03, which makes a number of improvements to the game. This update fixes some issues and adds some new functionality. We recommend that you install this update before playing FINAL FANTASY XVI.
