The new installment of Square-Enix is already here. It will be next June 22 when is released final fantasy 16 exclusively for PS5 And with a PC version coming in the months to come, everyone with an Xbox at home can just watch their friends play. Even so, when it did not seem that there were dark clouds on the horizon, it goes and they appear without warning in the form of fear of failure.
Surely you will know, but if not, we will tell you. Knowing when a game is going to be a success is something that few are still able to guess. Except in rare cases, as it is a new Zeldaa gta or similar things, the normal thing is that It is not until the game is released that its creators understand the depth of what they have achieved. Although lately there is an indicator that tells us a lot about what, at least, the trend they can expect.
You reserve that something remains
Indeed, that indicator that we currently have and that is relatively recent is that of the reservation system that is usually accompanied by rewards so that players can check out earlier than expected as the latest launch date. And of course, depending on some parameters, the companies are already seeing if the thing is working or not and in case the latter occurs, take certain corrective measures.
Those decisions have to do with offer price reductions even before they hit the storesnot so much in the stores digital PlayStation, Xbox or PC, but rather through other dealers They usually offer keys, codes and even physical editions with a few euros off. So can we expect something similar from this final fantasy 16 that will arrive in just 17 days?
Nerves and restlessness
The fact is that in the last few hours it has slipped that at Square-Enix they are not completely calm with final fantasy 16 and it is due to the number of reserves achieved at these launch heights, which are well below what the Japanese achieved with final fantasy xv a few years ago, in November 2016 when it appeared together for both PS4 and Xbox One, leaving computers for two years later in a port which was highly celebrated.
The person responsible for publicizing the state of tension in which Square-Enix seems to live has been the journalist Imran Khan, who has confirmed that these numbers are leaving something angry those responsible for the game, who would not fully understand the dissonance with the figures signed in the reserves of final fantasy xv. This has been enough for the source to have stated that the feeling that exists in the company is “a slight panic”.
Anyway, it seems impossible that final fantasy 16 going to be a fiasco and that it is not going to sell a sufficient quantity to make its development profitable. It would be a dramatic turn of events that not even the greatest hater of the saga can be expected since to this day, and unless further notice, this saga is always one of the most acclaimed by gamers. Although it must be said that we do not like a hair that they continue with the exclusives and leaving out a good part of the players who have Xbox, for example.
