    This really has been the best Final Fantasy game I have ever played (coming from a fan of older games)! The soundtrack is an absolute banger and the story has made me emotional (happy and sad) more times than I can count. This game has made me not want to put down my controller at all! I don't want this game to end.

    The game is so amazing and the details within the game are breath taking. Like this game has made me so happy and glad to turn on my PS5. Like I've been playing everyday since launch and can't get enough. Ive loved every character exception for some antagonist ones but over great game and great mechanics and story.

    Have been playing Final Fantasy games for over 30 years and FF16 is one the best entries in the series. The story is engaging and perfectly paced while the combat system is extremely fun and addicting. Unbelievable production values and lots of care went into making this game. It lives up to the hype!

    I loved this game. I know a lot of die hard final fantasy fans are stating that this is not a true final fantasy I would agree. As a long time fan of the series it's nice to see a change in play. Square has always been one to try different things with this series. But this story is truly a work of art.

    This is not your typical Final Fantasy game it's very modern some may or may not like that but overall its something I would highly recommend you play. The battle system is very familair to Devil May Cry the story is very Games of Thronish but you still have the Final Fantasy spark which make it works.

    Excellent game. Definitely my game of the year. Not sure I’m ready to commit to it being my favorite game of all time just yet but it could be. It was supposed to come with a Best Buy exclusive steel book but they forgot to give it to me. Ended up having to go back a week later and buy it for $10.

    Game is unreal! I’m loving it right now. Anyways, in response to the jerk that gave this game a 1 because they didn’t send him the 2nd hard case, i had to grab the Clive case of the shelf,,, they are free, All you had to do was call them, instead of trashing Best Buy & they would have sent it to you.

    Absolutely amazing game and a must buy for all lovers of Final Fantasy, JRPGs, or fantasy games. Exceeded my expectations. Would gladly pay the extra $30 for the steelbook, map, and nice box. I unfortunately was too late in preordering for the Best Buy exclusive steelbook.

    This edition is a great deal! To anyone who gets collector's editions and can't get ahold of the one with the statue, this isn't much more expensive than the game on its own and it comes with the steel book and a beautiful cloth world map. Highly recommend. Oh - and the game is awesome.

    Best Final Fantasy in years. Deluxe edition has embossed logo with eikons on the box for a quality look. map is made with a cloth fabric, very durable. Steelbook was beautiful and embossed main character Clive on it. Deluxe edition was worth every penny for the effort put in to it.

    Final Fantasy XVI breaks into a completely different genre than the series is best known for. However, the action totally works! Although I don’t want this to be the norm for the Final Fantasy series going forward, they really knocked out the larger than life Eikon battles!

    It’s different in a good way, long time FF player since 8 and my personal favorite is 12, didn’t think I was going to like the non turn based but I ended up loving it, definitely not your traditional RPG but it’s the best action adventure game I’ve played in a while!

    For me its a very good game. If you don't like games with cutscenes or a big story focused game. Then it may not be for you. This is my first final fantasy game. I had no interest in this game but then i played the free demo. Pre ordered right after completing it.
