It's been more than 6 years since the release of Final Fantasy XV, and while we have known for a while that its much anticipated sequel is planned to launch sometime during Summer 2023, no exact date was provided. Finally however, Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy XVI will be coming to PlayStation 5 in late June.

Making the announcement at the 2022 Game Awards, Square Enix released a new Final Fantasy XVI trailer, called ‘REVENGE’, with the description reading as follows:

“The flames of vengeance burn bright and beckon with ambitious hunger. Awaken the Eikons, but will you dominate them or will they dominate you?”

As with all previous Final Fantasy XVI trailers, the stakes are high and the action is bombastic. Unlike previous trailers however, this one concluded with a hard release date: 22nd of June 2023.

Unfortunately, those who do not own a PS5 console will have to wait a while longer, as it was previously confirmed that FFXVI will be exclusive to Sony’s current-gen machine for at least 6 months. That being said, for those who do own a PlayStation 5, Final Fantasy XVI is shaping up to be one of the most exciting entries in the series’ history.
