Final Fantasy XVI
Play it on: PS5
Current goal: Make progress
It’s the time of year when writers across video game outlets, myself included, begin cramming in as many games as they can before Game of the Year debates start. I’ve knocked out a few stragglers from my 2023 list and now I’m ready to sit down and try to find time to play through more of Final Fantasy XVI Will I finish it this weekend? No. Not a chance. But progress is progress and I’m hopeful.
While I know Square Enix’s latest installment in its popular RPG series isn’t universally loved by fans, I’m curious to see how it clicks with me, a person who isn’t a fan of Final Fantasy really and has only played three games in the series. Stay tuned (and follow me on Bluesky) to find out how it goes. — Zack Zwiezen
