Final Fantasy 16 DLC Echoes of the Fallen out now
eurogamer.netThe first part of Final Fantasy 16's DLC is out tonight: Echoes of the Fallen.
Game director Naoki Yoshida announced in September paid DLC was being developed (after initially stating the game was a «one-off», and then later hinting he was «thinking about» options).
Echoes of the Fallen is the first part of two DLC expansions. It will be followed by The Rising Tide in spring 2024, which will include the Eikon Leviathan as speculated by players, as well as a terrifying-looking Tonberry King.
An expansion pass is also available now at a discounted price.
