Final Fantasy XVI is coming to PC storefronts Steam and the Epic Games Store on September 17, 2024, and a demo for the PC version is currently up on Steam.
The PC port will be priced at $50 for the base game, and $70 for the complete edition that includes all paid DLC–Echoes of the Fallen and The Rising Tide. FFXVI’s PC launch comes at a time when Square Enix’s overall quarterly revenues have fallen to their lowest point in years, so this release should help boost the company’s earnings for the Q2 period (July – Sept) and well into the holiday Q3 period (Oct – Dec).
The publisher has yet to detail any special features of the FFXVI PC version, but the Steam listing does confirm HDR will be supported. The PC spec requirements are also somewhat lenient, but an SSD is required in order to play.
