An epic dark fantasy where fates are decided by mighty Eikons and the Dominants who wield them. This is the tale of Clive Rosfield, a tragic warrior who swears revenge on the Dark Eikon Ifrit, a mysterious entity that leaves naught but calamity in its wake.

Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

About
A plethora of powerful swordplay techniques and Eikonic abilities lie within Clive's remit—and it is up to you to decide which ones you wish to learn or upgrade. If you're having trouble choosing, upgrades can be unlocked automatically.
Story-focused mode is recommended for those players who are less comfortable with action games and wish to focus more on the game's story elements. In this mode, Clive will automatically evade some attacks, and epic Eikonic combos can be triggered with simple button presses. Action-focused mode, where Clive's every action is controlled by the player, is available for those who are confident in their skill—or want to test it.

Reviews
When I beat this game last year, I didn't know if I should write a review because I was conflicted on how the game made me feel. After coming back to it a year later, I've finally decided to write something: FINAL FANTASY XVI is a game with depth that made the strange choice to present itself as shallow as a puddle. It has elements that are genuinely stellar, and they're constantly dragged down by very strange choices and quirks. But I believe that there is still value in this. The game excels in areas like character writing, with an incredibly charming cast you will remember long after you beat it; music, and I cannot overstate this, the music is incredible; and some of the most bombastic, cinematic fights that videogames as a genre have to offer. It, however, also suffers from strange writing choices that disregard themes the game had been building up to for a large percentage of its playtime, and what could have been a complex and rich combat system that never demands more of you than button-mashing even on the highest difficulty. If what you're looking for is a game about the adventures of a memorable group of flawed individuals trying to make their miserable world a slightly better place, one incredibly epic battle at a time, then I have no doubt you'll enjoy what this game has to offer. Unfortunately, if you're looking for engaging, real-time action combat and for narrative depth to actually go somewhere (anywhere), you may still enjoy it, but will carry with you the same disappointment I do. Frankly, I cannot bring myself to not recommend it. And I've tried! So there must certainly be something in here that's worth experiencing despite the aforementioned caveats. Sometimes, the most memorable pieces of media are the ones we hate a little...

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 2: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Vroum vroum vroum ! C'est bon, elle démarre encore mamie. Comme d'habitude, il faut un peu jouer avec les clefs et la portière ne ferme pas bien. Ahhh, cette bonne vieille Régalia ... C'est un peu l'effet que me fait Final Fantasy XVI, celui d'une voiture qu'on connaît déjà. On ouvre la portière, on s'installe dans les sièges en cuir et, avant même de démarrer, il y a cette petite sensation familière (moi, c'était l'odeur de la cigarette, imprégné dans les sièges en tissu). Oui, J'ai toujours apprécié la série, particulièrement Final Fantasy XII et XV, et la démo du XVI m'a plutôt bien accroché. Je suis donc monté dans cette voiture sans trop d'hésitation, quitte à la pousser un peu pour qu'elle démarre. Et une fois lancée, les premières heures sont franchement agréables. D'abord, la radio fonctionne encore à merveille. Certains thèmes orchestraux avec chœurs sont absolument magnifiques, notamment lors des affrontements contre les Émissaires. Il y a ce petit quelque chose de Final Fantasy qui est immédiatement reconnaissable. Mais après quelques heures, le moteur commence à tousser. Parce que derrière cette ambiance et cette mise en scène souvent spectaculaire, certaines mécaniques donnent quand même l'impression de sortir d'une autre époque. La manière de parcourir le monde, notamment, paraît assez vieillotte. On est loin de la liberté et de la richesse d'exploration proposées par les jeux modernes. Et c'est assez paradoxal, parce que certains éléments ont clairement été modernisés. L'interface, par exemple, est vraiment réussie. C'est un peu comme si mamie avait installé un GPS dernier cri et une caméra de recul sur sa vieille voiture. Ça fonctionne très bien, c'est moderne, propre et agréable à utiliser. Mais le reste accuse davantage les kilomètres. Pour autant, je continue avec un peu d'appréhension le voyage. À environ six heures de jeu, je trouve que Final Fantasy XVI tient une partie de sa promesse : proposer quelque chose d'épique. L'histoire m'accroche, la tension est présente et beaucoup de séquences de mise en scène sont franchement impressionnantes. Les combats contre les boss sont probablement ce qui m'a le plus marqué jusqu'ici. C'est là que je retrouve vraiment ce que j'étais venu chercher. Je suis bien installé mais j'ai peur, qu'à la longue, le moteur lâche. Et on ne va pas se mentir ... Après être monté dans la nouvelle voiture de papa, l'Expédition 33, j'ai bien peur que la Régalia soit un peu démodée. À suivre...
最让我感到满足的，绝对是游戏在Boss战宏大画面上的顶级演绎。尤其是与泰坦召唤兽之间的对决，每堪称视觉与听觉的双重盛宴。战斗演出极其华丽，演出与战斗的无缝衔接更是让人肾上腺素飙升。当各种召唤兽在屏幕上混战，配合着极具感染力的BGM，那种巅峰对决的冲击力直接拉满，单凭这些震撼人心的大场面，就足以让这部作品值回票价。 相比之下，游戏的剧情表现只能算是中规中矩。作为佣兵的飞龙认出刺杀对象是自己青梅，上来就倒戈被刺自己队友，连基本的解释都没有。部分政治权谋的设定也略显儿戏，导致整体剧情缺乏足够的深度，没能把前期的惊艳感完美延续到最后。游戏中的图鉴和设定补充系统还是值得肯定的，甚至还有时间线，更加帮助玩家理解世界形势，只是被不精彩的剧情拖累了！ 在支线任务方面，我的接受度还可以。虽然游戏里充斥着不少类似“通马桶”的跑腿委托，节奏偏慢，但并没有完全磨灭我的探索欲。有些支线依然提供了不错的世界观补充，穿插在主线中体验，倒也不会觉得过于烦躁。 不过，两个DLC的内容确实让人有些意犹未尽，做得实在太短了。在主线漫长的流程之后，DLC本可以进一步丰满世界观或补充角色背景，但实际体验下来，流程非常仓促，还没等玩家完全沉浸进去就已经结束了，多少有些敷衍和遗憾。 另外，游戏优化有些难受，过场画面卡顿的难受，画面大部分灰蒙蒙，看着十分不舒服，切屏出去有时会发生曝光过度的情况（这点不知是游戏问题，还是我驱动的问题）十分影响游戏体验！
Here is my honest review after finishing the main game plus all the side quests (~70 hours). Pros: - The gameplay is pretty awesome and the Eikon fights are extremely entertaining to the point I would start a fight and then realize I completely lost track of the last 20 mins. - I quite like the main cast of characters and the story has some really good high points that will make you cry. - The graphics are amazing and the game ran really well on my setup (>120 fps all the time). Cons: - The side quests are extremely boring and 99% of them are "go there and kill that". - Outside of the main cast, the other characters are 1-dimensional and not very compelling. - The gear is extremely bland and just provides simple stat boosts like 6% damage on a specific ability. Should you buy it? If it's on sale. I would not buy it for full price. But if you're looking to kill some time and the game is on sale I would say give it a shot!
After 102 hours, I finally completed every achievement in Final Fantasy XVI. I know many long-time Final Fantasy fans have a low opinion of this game, but I genuinely loved it. FF XVI is only my second Final Fantasy game after FF XV, and it is also the first 3a game that I have finished twice and earned every achievement in. The combat is straightforward and does not require too much thinking made it relaxing and enjoyable for me. The incredible spectacle, boss fights, music and cinematic moments constantly surprised me. However, the game definitely has its problems. It gives you far too few Ability Points, so even during a second play through, you still have to deliberately grind for levels and AP. Enemies in New Game Plus also have too much health and often feel like damage sponges. The lack of enemy variety makes the repetition even more noticeable. There is also too large a level gap between the end of the main game and 2 DLC content. After finishing the main story, it feels like the game forces you to complete a lot of side content just to reach the appropriate level for the DLC. People often say that your favourite Final Fantasy will always be your first one. FFXVI was my second, but without a doubt, it has become my favourite. Looking forward to Final Fantasy XVII.
El mejor Final Fantasy para mi gusto, una maravila, Histoira y lore maravilloso, sistema de combate brutal y cinematicas insuperables.
[h1] Игра удивительных контрастов коричневого цвета! [/h1] Как бы кратко охарактеризовать мой негативный отзыв: 1) Из моих наигранных 14 часов, я часов 7-8 просто смотрел кат-сцены и не уровня Девида Кейджа - интерактивные кат-сцены, а просто нарезки тех или иных событий, зачастую очень плохо между собою связанных. 2) Игра настолько медленно начинается, что надпись "Ubisoft представляет" (ну т.е. прошел пролог), я увидел только на 14м часу игры. 3) Ты почти не играешь в эту игру, игра по сути играет сама в себя, у тебя просто постоянно отбирают управление. Посмотрел кат-сцену --> черный экран --> плавный переход к диалогу --> пару филерных фраз --> плавный переход с отдаляющейся камерой за спину твоего персонажа --> пробежал 20 метров --> повторить сначала. Я не шучу, такая вся игра. 4) У тебя нет бега как такового, скорость перемещения твоего персонажа/чокобо задаёт сюжет. Поэтому плетись по коридорной и пустой локе, бей болванчиков, смотри очередную кат-сцену. 5) Это не RPG от слова совсем. Тут есть некоторые элементы RPG, но по большому - это чистой воды action-slasher, по типу Devil May Cry или Darksiders. Беги, колоти врагов, делай комбухи, учи кнопки. Ну не этого я хотел бы от Final Fantasy. У врагов даже нет элементарных стихийных уязвимостей! Геймдизайн этой игры просто убит на корню и играть в это очень сложно и нудно. Если твоя наигранность в компьютерные игры заходить чуть дальше игр-сервисов, хотя бы раз в год или ты знаешь что такое Final Fantasy, то проходи мимо, эта игра недостойна даже пробы. Если ты большой фанат DMC, то пожалуй тебе может быть интересно на это посмотреть.
Beautiful graphics, fun not overcomplicated combat, lot's of cutscenes and a very interesting story with strong characters. Of course it has its flaws like some medioce unflavored side-quests that kinda do nor fit with the pace of the story but.. Absolutely recommended.
It took me a bit to get into it, it reminds me a lot of ff14, bit of a pacing issue and some drawn out dialogue. But the music, spectacle and characters had me wanting more. Its def worth your 30+ hour time. I didn't do many of side quests because its just how i play games. But the ones i did are just go get flower and bring back kind of quests. Overall its a great entry to the ff franchise. Plus who wouldn't want listen to Ben star monologue you for hours.,...
Посмотрите лучше игрофильм на ютубе и не тратьте своё время. По сравнению с ff15, это шаг назад.
