Final Fantasy XVI launch trailer, Salvation, revealed
blog.playstation.comFinal Fantasy XVI is the all-new mainline entry in the Final Fantasy series, releasing on Thursday June 22.
The launch trailer for Final Fantasy XVI, “Salvation,” was revealed today as part of the PlayStation Showcase.
With only around a month left until release, this outstanding trailer comes as we eagerly await the game!
The story of Final Fantasy XVI takes place in Valisthea, a land studded with Mothercrystals—glittering mountains of crystal that tower over the realms around them, blessing them with aether. People use the aether from the Mothercrystals to fuel the magicks they rely upon in their everyday lives, hailing Valisthea as “a land blessed in the light of the Mothercrystals.” Yet now the aether begins to fade and the lifeless deadlands spread ever further. Such desperate conditions drive the nations towards conflict and strife.
In the launch trailer, we see the harsh circumstances faced by the Bearers, those born with the ability to cast magicks at will. And we see the truth that lies behind the Mothercrystals, long supposed to have bestowed blessings upon humanity…

The curtain is about to rise on their story: we hope you’ll look forward to this tale of those who believe that the legacy of the crystals has shaped mankind’s destiny for long
