One of the boldest entries in the Final Fantasy franchise has dropped to a very low price, as you can get last year’s Final Fantasy 16 for just $25 on PS5 through Amazon and Walmart. This is the lowest price yet for the game, which was a radical departure from its predecessors. If you game on PC, you can get a Steam key at Green Man Gaming for $42.49 with promo code NOV15 (or $40 for GMG XP members).
$25 (was $50)
An action-RPG that mixed series staples like summons and magic attacks with fast-paced action combat, Final Fantasy 16 is a very mature entry in the series that’s anchored by solid performances from its cast. It’s the only mainline Final Fantasy game to earn an M rating from the ESRB.
“Having seen Final Fantasy 16 all the way through, I’m happy to include it alongside some of my all-time favorites in the series,” Michael Higham wrote in GameSpot’s Final Fantasy 16 review. “It’s heartening to see that this bold approach to both story and gameplay is now part of that legacy, expanding the definition of what a mainline entry could be. It may fall short in some respects, but it should be celebrated for its most stunning moments and the characters who embody them. FFXVI succeeds and earns its place within the Final Fantasy pantheon as one of the great entries, and does so on its own terms.”
