Final Fantasy 16 lacks integral PC features, but you can mod them in

One of my favourite RPGs lately, Final Fantasy 16 is now on PC. The story of Clive, Jill, Cid, and the perfect boy Torgal is one I gained’t quickly overlook. If you don’t personal a PS5 or have been ready for the port I wholeheartedly suggest diving in on Steam or Epic. That stated, the PC port is missing a couple of contains a launch of this scale ought to include on day one. FF16 isn’t unplayable, thoughts you, but not having these options is a significant bummer. Luckily for us, then, there’s already a brand new Final Fantasy 16 mod that provides them in, and it’s an compulsory obtain.

Continuing the sequence’ action-oriented strategy, Final Fantasy 16 is a narrative about household. There’s political intrigue, Eikons, and a massive canine, but the narrative of Clive and Joshua is the beating coronary heart. So if you’re considering of leaping into the RPG now, there’s a free Steam demo that carries over your progress to attempt first – but it’s additionally a good way to see how your rig fares.

Onto the ‘FFXVIFIX’ mod. Created by ‘Wintermance,’ it provides each ultrawide and narrower assist, removes the 30fps cap in cutscenes, provides FOV adjustment, and consists of the usage of body technology with movement blur. Screen hitching whereas taking screenshots is additionally mounted alongside JXL assist (for better-quality photos). Almost each triple-A recreation in 2024 ought to have these options, and now FF16 does too.

Square Enix additionally up to date the Final Fantasy 16 demo lately with loads of PC-specific fixes, so I wouldn’t rule out these much-needed options formally coming to the complete recreation in some unspecified time in the future. That stated, they’re not right here now, so this FF16 mod is your finest guess.

If you’ll allow me one final gush about FF16, it even appealed to me as somebody not too eager about excessive fantasy. The slick fight, wonderful performances (Ralph Ineson’s tackle sequence common Cid is a real standout), and Masayoshi Soken’s Earth-shattering music all come collectively to make one thing bigger than life. 2024 has been a busy yr for video games, but if you can squeeze this PC port in, I can’t suggest it sufficient.
