Final Fantasy XVI is far from over, as Square Enix announced one the Echoes of the Fallen and The Rising Tide story DLC at The Game Awards 2023. Echoes of the Fallen is out right now on the PS5.
However, players will, unfortunately, have to wait a little bit longer to play through The Rising Tide. This second add-on is scheduled to drop sometime in Spring 2024.
A new trailer debuted at TGA 2023, showcasing parts from both add-ons. The story DLC involves Clive and his companions going on a journey to discover the origins of a mysterious crystal, which has a place in the ancient Magitek War. There will be new locations, characters, and even boss battles, including fights against Omega Aionios and The Tonberry King.
In The Rising Tide, players will also travel to the new location of Mysidia where Leviathan and its presumed Dominant may finally appear. Fans may recognize the name of this location as towns and locales from past games, such as in Final Fantasy II and IV.
