as part of the day Final Fantasy XVI Worldwide media tour coverage, Gematsu presents over 45 minutes of gameplay footage from Final Fantasy XVI The press-launched demo went live earlier this month.
Show stills Final Fantasy XV Protagonist Clive Rosefield, the hound of Torgal, and his companion Sidulphus Telamon, the controller of Ramuh, infiltrate the Royal Wallider’s army in search of the Fire Dominator, who is rumored to be held there. But he instead meets Benedicta, the ruler of Garuda, who turns to her fugitive Suparna and Chirada on Clive, before eventually encountering Clive herself.
An Eikon vs. Eikon fight is also shown, where Clive transforms into Eikon Ifrit and lashes out at Garuda in a professional wrestling-style brawl.
Finally, the last clip shows the game’s “Timely” support extensions, which make a certain aspect of gaming easier for players who aren’t good at action games. These are completely optional, and can be equipped or removed at any time. While the video only shows the “Ring of Timely Focus” and “Ring of Timely Strikes” extensions, the full list is as follows:
- Focus ring in time – Temporarily slows down the time before an incoming attack, giving you more time to react.
- Help in a timely manner – Removes the need to manually give Torgal battle commands.
- Loop strikes at the right time – Execute killer combos by pressing square only.
- Dodging ring in time – Dodge most incoming attacks automatically.
- Healing ring in time – Use potions automatically when your HP drops below a certain threshold.
