Final Fantasy XVI, Square Enix's sixteenth installment of the popular Final Fantasy series is now available to play as of June 22nd, 2023 exclusively on the PlayStation 5!

Release Date: When Does FF16 Come Out?

Demo Available on June 12, 2023

The Final Fantasy XVI (FF16) demo is currently available to download on the PlayStation 5 as of June 12, 2023. Its release date and times were announced during the Pre-Launch Celebration Livestream held on June 11th, 2023.

The demo features the full game's prologue, alongside the Eikonic Challenge Mode where players can experience the action combat of Clive with additional Abilities and gear such as Timely Accessories.

Note that a player's prologue demo save data can carry over to the base game, so demo progress won't be naught once the full game releases. However, do note that progress from the Eikonic Challenge mode of the demo does not carry over to the base game.
