A proper backstory would do. How? FF16 has no relation to FF15 at all. You don't need to know anything about FF15 to play this Also @RV1709 Direct Sequels are numbered differently in the FF Series. For example Final Fantasy 8 has no relation to FF7. But the direct sequel to FF7 will be branded Final Fantasy 7 Part 2 or FF7-2. Same way FF14 and FF15 have no relation to FF13, but FF13-2 and FF13-3 are direct sequals to the base game that is FF13. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply how the series is over the past 20 years or so. No link between games at all. Not to mention, the entire development team is completely different for FF16 as compared to FF15, the setting is different (FF16 -Medieval, FF15 - Set in modern times), the World is different, the lore is different and maybe even gameplay. There is no official link just for this title, but there is no doubt that this game is completely stand-alone. It's how Final Fantasy operates right from the time FF2 had no relation to FF1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaven Angel Posted December 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 The ESRB Rating of Final Fantasy XVI Mature 17+ Details Quote This is an action role-playing game in which players assume the role of an enslaved prince (Clive) on a quest to find his missing brother. From a third-person perspective, players explore a fantasy kingdom, complete various quests, and engage in battles against enemy soldiers and fantastical creatures (e.g., trolls, orcs). Players use swords and magical attacks (e.g., fireballs, lighting strikes) to kill characters in melee-style combat. During fighting sequences, players can perform cinematic attacks/finishing moves by following on-screen prompts. Battles are fast paced, accompanied by impact sounds, cries of pain, and large explosions. Blood-splatter effects frequently occur when characters are slashed and killed. Cutscenes depict additional acts of violence and blood: a character's hands severed by a sword; a guard's throat slit by a knife; a character impaled through the chest; a prisoner's shoulder stabbed and twisted by an interrogator's blade. The game contains some sexual material: a character caressing and straddling a man in bed; references to prostitution—sexual moaning sounds in a brothel; dialogue such as, “I'd be happy to show you…provided I can afford it” and “…thank you for your service. My chamber is just upstairs." Some characters are depicted with partially exposed breasts and buttocks. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” are heard in the game.
