Xbox fans don’t need to wait any longer to play Final Fantasy XVI on their Series X/S. Two years after the action RPG debuted on PS5, it got a surprise release on Xbox’s consoles on Sunday. Its sudden arrival was announced during the Xbox Games Showcase as part of Summer Game Fest.
The game’s now available via the Xbox PC app as well. Granted, Final Fantasy XVI has been on Steam and the Epic Games store since last September, but some folks might have been waiting for its arrival on Xbox. Buying Final Fantasy XVI once on any Xbox platform means you’ll be able to play it across console, PC and cloud with synced progression.
A complete edition that includes both Final Fantasy XVI expansions is available for Xbox. There’s a standard edition that includes the base game as well.
The arrival of Final Fantasy XVI on Xbox means that you can now play all the mainline, single-player Final Fantasy games on Microsoft‘s consoles, save for the Final Fantasy VII remakes. However, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is coming to Xbox this winter — just in time for those new Xbox gaming handhelds.
