This game will probably be of more interest to members here over most PS5 exclusives so I'm excited for the discussions to be had.

Personally I have high hopes for this game. I am still working through the Final Fantasy games (I still have VI and X to go), but after playing most of them I really hope this game captures the magic of the older games. XIII was beautiful and had great gameplay, but the story was a mess and the game was longer than it needed to be. XIII-2 did redeem the mini-series though. XV was fun for what it was but it didn't feel like a Final Fantasy game. I'm hoping we get open worlds to explore, cities to visit, and a decent story this time.

Right now I am expecting early 2023 because it is Square. Hopefully the final product is a banger.

I hope this one if for me. FXII was the last one I really liked. Tried XIII and XV but it was not my thing.

I hope Ariana Grande makes an appearance.
