Final Fantasy 16 Reveals New Features Coming in Future Update
Though the game has been out for a while, developer Square Enix still intends to improve the experience for players of Final Fantasy 16 with a new update. The update will add several new features to the Final Fantasy 16 user interface, making things more convenient for players who like to tinker with their character builds.

Rather than a turn-based or real-time menu-driven combat system, the Final Fantasy 16 development team opted for purer action-based combat starring a single character, protagonist Clive Rosfield. Over the course of Clive's journey, players can acquire godlike abilities from powerful Eikons, and finding the best Final Fantasy 16 ability combos is a major part of gameplay.
Square Enix isn't done improving Final Fantasy 16 for players old and new, as evidenced by the team's panel at PAX East held in Boston, Massachusets over the weekend.
