Story Highlights
  • The Final Fantasy 16 PC port has been in the works for a while.
  • The JPRG is heading to PC on September 17, and a free demo is now available.
  • It will cost just $50 on the platform.

Final Fantasy 16 has been in development for PC for a while. The latest mainline entry in the series launched as a PS5 exclusive last year, but Square Enix began work on the PC version shortly after.

While fans had expected an update on this PC port at Gamescom, Square Enix has suddenly revealed more information. The JRPG is finally heading to PC next month.

Why it matters: This series has had a huge fandom on PC since previous entries like Final Fantasy 15 launched on the platform on day one.

Final Fantasy 16 Is Very Different From Its Predecessors

Square Enix has confirmed a September 17 launch for Final Fantasy 16 on PC. In addition to Steam, this JRPG is heading to the Epic Games Store. It will also be priced at just $50 compared to the $70 launch price on the PS5.

This is a nice change of pace for the series since previous entries like Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade launched as timed Epic Games Store exclusives. Square Enix is unlikely to repeat this mistake in the future.

The team has also confirmed that a free demo is now available to download. This is the same demo that PS5 users got to play last year, giving fans a taste of Final Fantasy 16’s combat system, epic boss battles, and more.

Fans are also hoping for an Xbox port next. With Gamescom right around the corner and this surprise announcement, perhaps the Xbox version will be revealed at Gamescom.

Final Fantasy 16 was well-received last year, but it sold just 3 million units. Following the Steam release, this JRPG might find a much bigger audience, driving it to the levels of success that Square Enix wanted.
