"Father of final Fantasy" Hiroshin Sakaguchi has passed the customs "FF16": this is "Ultimate Fantasy"

CTOnews.com August 14, the "father of final fantasy" Hiroshi Sakaguchi posted on X (Twitter) that he had passed the customs "FF16" and called it the "ultimate fantasy" of final fantasy.

Sakaguchi also said that the final fantasy is constantly developing, it will never end, and the spirit of adventure, courage and determination are the key.

CTOnews.com previously reported that the "FF16" development team revealed in a recent interview that Square Enix had previously thought of using the "universal engine" of "Unreal 4 and Unreal 5" to create "final Fantasy 16", but considering that such engines are not their own and are more expensive to use, which is bad for Sqaure Enix itself.

In the end, the development team decided to build a new internal engine from scratch with "final Fantasy 16" as a starting point. As for the specific information about the engine (such as its name, etc.), the official did not give a clear answer in this interview.

It is worth mentioning that Naoki Yoshida said at the conference that Square Enix will continue to develop new content for final Fantasy 14, while asking players, "what is your experience of final Fantasy 16? will you look forward to its follow-up content, derivatives and other works of the team?" There will be a follow-up to the story that reveals final Fantasy 16, which is expected to be released as DLC or derivative works.
