Final Fantasy 16 made its public debut during an episode of State of Play earlier this year.

After it was officially revealed earlier this year, developers at Square Enix have started to reveal more details and share more videos that show us the game. While more will be released in the coming period.

In a new IGN interview conducted with the game's director Hiroshi Takai About the game's plot and many details that we are seeing for the first time.. He said during the interview:

The part we call the main plot is a rich, expansive narrative that progresses without any forks. However, many side stories unfold around the main plot.

These side stories add a lot to the story and show different sides of the characters. The areas themselves vary in size, some smaller, some larger.

There are many areas called 'the field'. It has an area of about 2 square kilometers where there are settlements and many other things. As you progress through the story, you will also come across some areas called 'Stages'.

Although there is a lot of exploration in the game, players do not need to spend energy on research to avoid difficulties in progressing in the game later on.
