Final Fantasy XV came out four years ago almost to the day (November 29, 2016). I repeat: Final Fantasy XV came out four years ago. And in the time you've pondered what that means to you, Square Enix just greenlit another spinoff.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn has somehow managed to basically get better with every expansion: I don't know how Naoki "Yoshi P" Yoshida and his team do it. While many MMOs are content with braving severe ups and downs, XIV has rem...

For years, Final Fantasy XIV has been hosting these fireside chats for the game called "Letter from the Producer Live." They're such a big deal that I've actually watched them in a room with other XIV players like they were an E3 ...

[Update: The official site has been updated to provide new context on some of the upcoming patch content. Castrum Marinum, the new trial, will feature Emerald Weapon from Final Fantasy VII: who now joins Ruby Weapon. We're a few degrees awa...

You could leave the eco-terrorism to Cloud and the rest of the Avalanche crew. Or, you could take it into your own hands -- provided you can get to Japan one way or another. Japan is getting a real-life Final Fantasy VII Remake e...

Square Enix is at it again with their Asia-exclusive physical Switch carts! This time the beloved Final Fantasy IX is being immortalized in physical form once again; which is just as well since this game should never be subject to lega...

Final Fantasy XIV has sent ripple effects through the industry ever since its "Reborn" phase roughly seven years ago. Square Enix proved to the industry that you could truly "save" a game that was in peril: and I say this as someone wh...

Final Fantasy XVI is on my radar in a big way. I think people are sleeping on it for now, as a lot of non-Final Fantasy XIV players aren't aware of the raw talent that Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida possesses. And that's fine! XVI will p...

For most MMOs, a "middle patch" typically isn't that huge. But Final Fantasy XIV is not most MMOs. Although Patch 5.3 gave us the goods with a gigantic storyline injection and several major encounters (including more NieR raid!), ...

Unlike every other big game released in 2020, Final Fantasy VII Remake hasn't gotten many patches. Actually, Square Enix only updated the game once – and it happened today, six months after launch. Reports are starting to come in that...

Final Fantasy XIV is in-between patches right now, which is a perfect excuse for Square Enix to try and get people back in and playing again. To that end, there's yet another "Returner" login campaign that's kicking off today. It's live rig...

For years, a common Final Fantasy XIV (and by extension, PS4) "hack" has to been to install an SSD drive in your PS4 just to lessen the load times for hardcore XIV players. Given that the whole process won't be necessary on PS5, i...

Final Fantasy XVI seems like it's in good hands. We already sort of knew this because Yoshi-P was on the case, but Square Enix seemingly hasn't jumped the gun years in advance like they have in the past. In fact, a good deal of Final Fantas...

Back in late August, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition arrived with some unfortunate multiplayer issues. Square Enix has since apologized for it, vowing to fix the connection problems among other lingering bugs. The day ha...

Years ago, Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida quietly changed the perception of Final Fantasy XIV. I was there at E3 when XIV debuted. I saw the grimacing faces of press and players alike, and witnessed the rocky launch. I was also there when it ...

Sony kicked off their recent PS5 event right: with confirmation of Final Fantasy XVI. But it wasn't just any old Square Enix trailer, though. It actually had gameplay! According to producer Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida, that was deliberate. Acco...

A cozy weekend with some of your favorite Final Fantasy games on Nintendo Switch sure sounds nice. It's hard to justify buying re-releases when we've been there and done that multiple times before on other platforms, so if you've been holdi...

Final Fantasy XV was no spring chicken by the time it finally released. Its long, winding, troubled development is well-documented, and the timeline became something of a joke. In fact, that 10 years stretched to the point where work o...

Naoki "Yoshi P" Yoshida is a legend among Final Fantasy XIV players. Known for his humble demeanor (both in and outside of the game), Yoshi P turned XIV around with A Realm Reborn reboot and never looked back. The pivot was hencef...

It's hard to believe that PlayStation Now kicked off at the start of 2014. Hell, I can't believe PlayStation Plus was implemented in 2010. Sony has a lot of little programs (just like Microsoft, with Game Pass Ultimate!) so it can be hard t...
