    Ps5 finally has a game worth playing as their past games have been whatever and not a true benefit of owning a ps5. This game changes that by being awesome story wise, the combat is fast paced, the graphic option looks good and does a good job of maintaining a solid 30 FPS. I dont like paying 70 dollars for games but this was one worth it

    It's a very linear game, but the content is very well done. The story is engaging, the characters are enjoyable, the side quests actually have justifiable reasons for existing and add to the world. The graphics are gorgeous. The boss fights are epic. The combat is fluid and exciting.

    One of the most involved Final Fantasy's I've played and I'm a veteran to the series. It's different from the fact its no longer turn based, but don't let that deter you from one of the most beloved facts about these games in the series. The story, the music, and the characters. ....just tragic so far but I've yet to complete it.

    I saw my friend play, and was immediately captivated. Overall awesome game. The story, graphics and game play are excellent. There are a lot of tributes to the past titles throughout the game (music, characters, etc), and it's fun to find them. I have played most FF titles, but this one is unique and may be one of my favorites.

    The game has been entertaining so far I am probably about 6/8 hours in. In that there are a ton of entertaining cut scenes compared to the amount of actual game time. When you get to play the game compared to watching it the exploration feels limited but beautiful and the combat feels smooth. I hope as the game progresses the world opens up and the non interactive cut scenes are reduced. At least until the end game.

    While this may be a departure from the classic turn-based Final Fantasy games, it has solid combat and an epic story. I do wish you had more fully-controllable party members like in FF7 Remake, but overall I'm enjoying the game so far. If you like Game of Thrones storytelling and Devil May Cry combat, this is for you.

    This installment is definitely worth playing! The action and the story are compelling and engaging. I can’t remember the last time I’ve played a Final Fantasy game and just wanted to keep playing from beginning to end. I love the faster-paced combat. The creators experimented with making changes that were worth it.

    Fighting system is great. Causing damage to enemies has never been so fun, but there is no party management, sadly. Story is very good and really engaging. Graphics are astounding as often times I am left to pan around and enjoy the view, of not only panoramic vistas but mere forest trails too. Really good game.

    This is definitely a cinematic game. Lots of cutscenes and flashy graphics. The story is, surprisingly enjoyable. I’m having a great time playing the game. The “easy mode” artifacts are also appreciated as I don’t have the time anymore to “get good” at a game and want to experience the story and battles.

    Final Fantasy XVI is quite literally the best game I think I ever have played on my PlayStation 5. Great characters, great combat, an amazing heart-wrenching story, and fun side quests. I'd recommend this game to anyone who is into Final Fantasy, Hack-and-Slash games, or great romance stories.

    This game is *chefs kiss*. The story is magnificent. The combat is really fun at ge start but can get repetitive as far as the moveset goes, but that changes pretty quickly as you progress. 100% recommending this to anyone that's into a game that is heavily story based with fast paced combat

    Really great game. The graphics are stunning, the combat is challenging but fun and complex. The story is engaging and rich. The characters have great personalities. It's refreshing to play an older character as well. The world is beautiful and alive and the towns look realistic.

    This game has become polarizing but only because some people didn’t understand what this was supposed to be. I can tell you this game is well worth your time. I don’t really write reviews so I’m just going to make this quick and say if you’re thinking about getting this game I recommend it.

    Even if you're not the biggest fan of the FF franchise you owe to yourself to play this game. The action is stupendous, the story is engrossing and the production value is thru the roof. If youre looking for a PS5 only game that takes full advantage of the system well look no further.

    This game ushers in the new era of Final Fantasy. It does a fantastic job of telling a deep and intricate story while having addictive quests that make the world feel very alive. The combat is very repetitive but once you unlock more abilities it becomes a lot more fun to play.
