Xbox fans don't need to wait any longer to play Final Fantasy XVI on their
Series X/S. Two years after the action RPG debuted on PS5, it got a surprise
release on Xbox's consoles on Sunday. Its sudden arrival was announced during
the Xbox Games Showcase as part of Summer Game Fest.

The game's now available via the Xbox PC app as well. Granted, Final Fantasy
XVI has been on Steam and the Epic Games store since last September, but some
folks might have been waiting for its arrival on Xbox. Buying Final Fantasy
XVI once on any Xbox platform means you'll be able to play it across console,
PC and cloud with synced progression.

A complete edition that includes both Final Fantasy XVI expansions is
available for Xbox. There's a standard edition that includes the base game as
well.

The arrival of Final Fantasy XVI on Xbox means that you can now play all the
mainline, single-player Final Fantasy games on Microsoft's consoles, save for
the Final Fantasy VII remakes. However, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade
is coming to Xbox this winter ΓÇö just in time for those new Xbox gaming
handhelds.
