If you want the best weapon in the game, you’ll need to craft Ultima in Final Fantasy 16. Ultimate is the secret super weapon only available in New Game+ and on the hardest difficulty level. After completing the story, you can replay and earn Ultima by reforging legendary swords, making the weapons you already have more powerful by completing side-quests and earning more rare materials from Notorious Marks. The Ultima sword is only available after nearly a complete full second playthrough. So be prepared for a lot of game time before you can get the true best weapon in FF16.

Ultima is the true most powerful sword in Final Fantasy 16. This weapon can only be unlocked in New Game+ (NG+) on Final Fantasy Mode — the new harder difficulty that is only available after completing the story once. This secret weapon is one of the only new pieces of content you’ll find in NG+ / Final Fantasy Mode.
