Maybe one of the most interesting games for Playstation 5 is Final Fantasy XVI. Unfortunately, we haven’t seen a lot of the game, and it looks like it will briefly until we see more because today Square Enix announces the delay in the game. This was quite significant, as a manufacturer of Final Fantasy XVI Naoki Yoshida said that the Pandemic Covid-19 had “delayed the development of the game almost half a year.”
Yoshida revealed this in a long statement published to Twitter this morning. While most developers blame the challenge with Covid-19 pandemic and let it, Yoshida goes to specifically about how the pandemic has affected the development of Final Fantasy XVI.
According to his statement, Pandemi Covid-19 Pandemi forced Square Enix to decentralize the Final Fantasy XVI team by shifting home. “This unfortunately inhibits communication from the Tokyo office, which in turn, has caused delays – or in extreme cases, cancellations – asset delivery of our outsourcing partners,” explained Yoshida.
The good news, according to Yoshida, is that Square Enix has hammered these problems throughout 2021, so having a remote work team should not cause problems in 2022. There are still many things to do, because Yoshida said that the team would focus on “improving quality Graphic resources, refining combat mechanisms, cursing individual battles, placing the final touch on the cutscene, and doing overall graphical optimization, “but XVI’s last fantasy developer must be better off handling the tasks in the new one. year.
As for when Final Fantasy XVI might be launched, it was still in the air. We should see the game again before the end of this year, but it no longer happens. Instead, Yoshida said that Final Fantasy XVI “Next Big Reve” will occur in the spring of 2022.
Meanwhile hopefully it means we will see the release of the game at some point next year, it is impossible to notify without more specific than Square Enix. Indeed, many in the air today, and the covid surge caused by the Omicron variant can interfere with further plans. Hopefully, Final Fantasy XVI is rather isolated from such a surge, but Covid-19 towering on the potential of any release timeline.
We just had to wait and see what Yoshida and Square Enix were announced next. There’s no way we will hear more about Final Fantasy XVI before the big spring revealed, but hopefully, it gives us new release details, see the game, or both. For now, Final Fantasy XVI is only confirmed for Playstation 5, but we will tell you if it changes in the future.
