According to new comments from Yoshida, <em>Final Fantasy<\/em><em> 16<\/em> is nearing completion and is in the process of being polished and debugged. <\/p>\n<p >Yoshida also said that a new trailer for <em>Final Fantasy<\/em><em> 16<\/em> is done and ready to go, but was held back by undisclosed factors. Yoshida has promised to give Final Fantasy fans a new look at <em>FF16<\/em> sometime this spring, which gives him through June to keep that promise. <\/p>\n<p >The latest update on <em>Final Fantasy 16<\/em>, which does not have an official release window, came <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GNfFS5watmY\">during a livestream<\/a> about a new <em>Nier<\/em><em> Reincarnation<\/em>-themed event coming to <em>Final Fantasy 14 Online<\/em>, another game that Yoshida oversees. A <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/aitaikimochi\/status\/1522553151932432385\">translation of Yoshida&#8217;s comments by Twitch streamer Audrey<\/a> indicates that he wants the <em>FF16<\/em> team to further polish the game. <\/p>\n<p >During the stream, Yoshida was peppered with questions from Yosuke Saito, producer of the Nier games, who appeared to jokingly imply that <em>Final Fantasy 16<\/em> was already done &#8212; Saito was apparently aware that <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/aitaikimochi\/status\/1522581337009717249\">Yoshida had gotten some heat from Square Enix<\/a> for talking about the game&#8217;s development status in the pages of Uniqlo&#8217;s UT magazine. <\/p>\n<p >While Yoshida&#8217;s comments about <em>Final Fantasy 16<\/em>&#8216;s development status are encouraging, it still doesn&#8217;t sound like the game is pegged for release in 2022. Square Enix already has a busy year ahead of it, with <em>Forspoken<\/em> in October, and role-playing games <em>Star Ocean<\/em><em>: The Divine Force<\/em>, <em>The DioField Chronicle<\/em>, and Valkyrie Profile series sequel <em>Valkyrie Elysium<\/em> slated for sometime in 2022. <\/p>\n<p ><em>Final Fantasy 16<\/em> was announced in September 2020 as a PlayStation 5 game.
