Description

About the Game

The first fully fledged Action RPG in the mainline Final Fantasy series.
An epic dark fantasy world where the fate of the land is decided by the mighty Eikons and the Dominants who wield them. This is the tale of Clive Rosfield, a warrior granted the title “First Shield of Rosaria” and sworn to protect his younger brother Joshua, the dominant of the Phoenix. Before long, Clive will be caught up in a great tragedy and swear revenge on the Dark Eikon Ifrit, a mysterious entity that brings calamity in its wake.

Titanic Clashes - When rival Dominants come head to head, epic battles between their Eikons ensue!

Eikonic Action - Clive utilizes the powers of multiple Eikons in breakneck battle!

From Strength to Strength

A plethora of powerful swordplay techniques and Eikonic abilities lie within Clive's remit—and it is up to you to decide which ones you wish to learn or upgrade. If you're having trouble choosing, upgrades can be unlocked automatically.


Story-focused mode is recommended for those players who are less comfortable with action games and wish to focus more on the game's story elements. In this mode, Clive will automatically evade some attacks, and epic Eikonic combos can be triggered with simple button presses. Action-focused mode, where Clive's every action is controlled by the player, is available for those who are confident in their skill—or want to test it.

This is not a Final Fantasy game, it's the most boring 46 hour film of all time. What a gigantic waste of time, this game is ABSYMAL. If you like Final Fantasy IP and you have braincells; DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK!

Many before me have said the same thing: Loved the story & setting, hated the gameplay and lack of strategy/FF mechanics. + Story & Visuals. 8/10 - Gameplay is not "Final Fantasy" in the least. 3/10 Finally beat the

Okay, where do we start here. I don't usually write reviews, but this one boiled me last night while trying to sleep. I’ve played every main installment of the franchise. Yes, every single one . And this one? This one

I haven't played many of the Final Fantasies besides the MMO's XI and XIV, but I saw a streamer playing this game and I thought it looked fantastic. I really enjoyed the combat and the rich story, and the characters

This was the first Final Fantasy game I have played and I personally loved it. Im a sucker for a tragic story with alot of heart and memorable characters which this had in abundance. I enjoyed the combat, it was nothing

I like ff16. It's worth a playthrough. When I first played it on playstation I was disappointed. It didn't feel like a Final Fantasy game should. It's better here on PC. And better with the DLC. But it's still a hollow
