And Eikons will dominate.
Fans have speculated whether other characters will join battles, which producerNaoki Yoshidaconfirmed toIGN- although they will remain AI-controlled.
That said, for most of his journey, Clive will be accompanied by one or more companions.
These companions will participate in battle, as well as trade banter with Clive.
And that’s why we decided we’d rather have players focus solely on just controlling Clive."
Suzuki has had a major contribution to the feel of the game, ensuring pace and fluidity.
That’s why bringing in Suzuki-san really really helped us out," said Yoshida.
His contribution has been great, and without him we wouldn’t have been able to do this."
Another major area of combat will be the Eikon summons.
What’s more, as the recent trailer showed, Eikons will also be summonable to face each other.
And so you’re going to have something that feels fresh and new each time you play."
Final Fantasy 16 also won’t be open world,Yoshida confirmed.
The game is set for release insummer 2023.
