Square Enix debuted a new trailer for Final Fantasy 16 during Thursdays's PlayStation State of Play event. The trailer focuses on Eikons in Final Fantasy 16, the summons of past Final Fantasy franchises. In Final Fantasy 16, individuals can become a Dominant, which means they house an Eikon within them.
