FINAL FANTASY XVI producer Naoki Yoshida has delivered a nearly four-minute message to fans through the official FFXVI account, revealing that development on a PC version of the game is now officially underway. No release date was provided, but Yoshida did confirm that a free update for the console edition and two paid DLC packs are also in the works for the fantasy RPG, which released on June 22, 2023. FFXVI is currently available for 20% off ($55.99) through the PlayStation Store.
As I mentioned earlier, we’ve seen so many opinions and reactions from our community of FINAL FANTASY XVI players. But one thing that came through particularly strongly was how people wanted to see more of Valisthea’s story and spend more time with her inhabitants. To accommodate, the development team has started work on two installments of paid DLC.
Finally, while FINAL FANTASY XVI was released as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, we are aware that many of you have been asking for a PC version. So, allow me to take this opportunity to officially announced that development on a PC version is currently underway. I hope to be able to give you more information on both the upcoming downloadable content and the PC version before the end of the year, so please stay tuned.
