Final Fantasy 16 Producer Says “the Possibility of More DLC isn’t Entirely Zero”, but Players Shouldn’t Expect More
Final Fantasy 16 producer Naoki Yoshida has said that, while there is the possibility of more DLC being made for the game, players shouldn’t expect more any time soon. Final Fantasy 16 is currently gearing up for the release of its second DLC, The Rising Tide. When asked if Square Enix was interested in releasing more DLC for the title, Yoshida, while not definitively shutting down the possibility, did say that it’s unlikely.

The studio itself, however, might be more interested in working on a new project rather than making more DLC for Final Fantasy 16.
“And because of that, we were able to gain a lot of experience, a lot of learnings, that we can possibly apply to our next project or title,” continues Yoshida. “So my honest feeling is that the team does want to take on a new challenge and move on to a different project – maybe it’s a completely new game, perhaps in a completely new form of entertainment. I feel like ultimately, that might be the best route for not just the players, but for us as well, too. But again, to reiterate, the possibility of more DLC content for Final Fantasy 16 is not zero.”
Final Fantasy 16 was released on PS5 back in 2023. Being developed by Square Enix’s Creative Business Unit 3, it is worth noting that the studio typically
