The trailer for Final Fantasy 16 is about to be released, according to producer Naoki Yoshida.

The development of the game is also almost complete.

TOKYO – It's been almost two years since Square Enix announced Final Fantasy 16 exclusively for the PS5.

At that time, the developers had already announced that they wanted to hold back with updates and details about the game until shortly before publication.

Now the long wait seems to be coming to an end.

What is the background?

After it was announced that the release of Final Fantasy 16 would be delayed, fans of the series are now waiting for a bigger look at the game.

Square Enix had also promised this for spring 2022.

Producer Naoki Yoshida had already announced in December 2021 that there should be a new trailer for Final Fantasy 16 in spring 2022.

Only last week did Yoshida write that they were now in the final stages of development of Final Fantasy 16.

What exactly did Naoki Yoshida say about the trailer?

In a stream of the mobile game "NieR Re[in]carnation", Yoshida now said that the new trailer for Final Fantasy 16 is ready and should be released soon.

While there were certain factors that caused the trailer unveiling to be delayed, it will now be released soon.

Yoshida's statement was recapitulated on Twitter by user @aitaikimochi.

Producer reiterates that Final Fantasy 16 is almost finished:

In the stream, Yoshida also repeated that the game is now almost finished.

The development team put a lot of time into fine-tuning and debugging.

However, the producer did not give an exact date for the release of the new trailer or the game itself.

When can we expect the trailer and the game?

If Final Fantasy 16 is really almost finished, it could very well be that a release date will be mentioned directly with the next announcement of further details.

There is also reason to hope that this release date will not be in the too distant future.

It is possible that more details about Final Fantasy 16 will be announced at the Summer Game Fest on June 9th or at a future Sony State of Play.

Is Final Fantasy 16 coming in 2022?

The exact date for the release of the Final Fantasy 16 trailer remains uncertain even after Naoki Yoshida's statement.

The release date of the game is still in the stars.

Nevertheless, fans can still cautiously hope for a release in 2022.

In any case, we kept all interested parties up to date on all upcoming developments.

What is already known about the game?

In Final Fantasy 16, the combat system from the previous game in the series should be retained.

So the new part will also do without the turn-based system for which the series was previously known.

In part 16 of the game series, however, the developers want to put a stronger focus on real fantasy elements again.

The previous parts of the main series, however, had gone more and more in the direction of science fiction.
