Final Fantasy XVI "Ambition" Trailer Drop!

THAT'S RIGHT, the new trailer for FFXVI dropped this morning, and for once I was the last of my friend group to hear of it. Here's the link:

I am also going to attempt to embed it, but I hear others elsewhere have problems with embedding it because the English version is age-restricted, so we'll see if it works!

Watch on YouTube

I remain excited about this game, and hope I get the money soon to buy a PS5 so I can play the game at launch. Would love to hear your thoughts on the trailer!

Oooooooooooo yes! FFXII is my fav because of the medieval steampunk vibes and I'm very excited by some of the same vibes we've seen in XVI trailers so far. I love this concept even if it's not official timeline stuff!

I believe there was an interview with Yoshi-P (or was it someone else attached to the game?) before FFXVI was announced where they were asked what they wanted to see in the next Final Fantasy and they said "a return to more medieval setting" (paraphrase). I remember being excited about that. While I do love what FFXV did, and especially love the mix of science fiction and fantasy in FFXIV, an honest-to-goodness straight fantasy setting would be great.

This seems to be less steampunk, more medieval but still seems to be somewhat in that vein.

Even if it's not official, there's always fic, right?
