Let’s be honest here for a moment. 2023 had many ups and downs in gaming, even if Geoff Keighley doesn’t want to admit it! One of the biggest “downers” of 2023 was a host of games coming out before they ever should’ve been released. Not only does that look bad on the industry, but on the people who worked on the games that should’ve known it would’ve been bad if released then. Yes, some of them might have been fighting back, but other times, it was clear that they were fine with those early releases. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s director won’t be among that cast of “characters” when the game releases next year.

Square Enix today revealed the first two DLCs for Final Fantasy XVI, called Echoes of the Fallen and The Rising Tide. Echoes of the Fallen launches today, while The Rising Tide is due to launch sometime in Spring 2024. Both DLC will apparently add to the main game’s story and take place before the game’s final battle.
While we don’t know yet exactly what kind of content will be available in both DLC, the trailer hints that Clive and company will discover something call Eikonoclasts in Echoes of the Fallen, and the mysterious lost Eikon, Leviathan, in Rising Tide. The trailer also reveals several in-game enemies, including the vicious-looking Tonberries.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Fans Showing Love To Square Enix Devs
Video game developers are constantly under pressure to make the best titles they can. That goes double for when they’re working in an established franchise or have made a hit game and are asked to follow it up. With Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the pressure increases exponentially because of various factors. First, the previous entry in the “remake saga” was a smash hit and “rewrote” the world and characters that fans loved in certain places. That means the sequel could be just as “shifting,” and that has caused some problems amongst “some fans.” By that, we mean people have been bombarding the Square Enix team with messages and demanding that certain things don’t happen in the sequel.
