Final Fantasy 16 publisher Square Enix has revealed more about the game’s upcoming demo. According to Square Enix, the Final Fantasy 16 demo features around two hours of action, and progress will carry over to the full release. In terms of a release date, there’s a good chance the demo will drop during this week’s PlayStation Showcase event for upcoming PS5 and PSVR 2 games. Final Fantasy 16 has featured in multiple State of Play events, and Sony will want to make some big announcements during the presentation.
As pointed out by Push Square, Square Enix previously said the demo would drop a few weeks ahead of its June 22 launch.
With the PlayStation Showcase taking place on May 24, it may be slightly too early for the demo to release.
However, even if the demo doesn’t launch during this week’s PlayStation Showcase event, there’s a very good chance Square Enix will announce the release date.
Apparently, the demo will give players the opportunity to control lead character Clive during his younger days.
The game is described as an “epic dark fantasy” where the fate of the land and its people are decided by the “mighty Eikons and the Dominants who wield them”.
Square Enix reveals more: “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.
“Before long, Clive will be caught up in a great tragedy and swear revenge on the Dark Eikon Ifrit, a mysterious entity that brings calamity in its wake.”
As for the PlayStation Showcase, the event takes place at 9pm BST on Wednesday, May 24.
According to Sony, the event will focus on upcoming PS5 and PSVR 2 games, combining new reveals with trailers for previously announced titles.
“The show will run a bit over an hour, focusing on PS5 and PS VR2 games in development from top studios from around the world.
“Expect a glimpse at several new creations from PlayStation Studios, as well as spellbinding games from our third-party partners and indie creators.”
