Video-game streamer, translator, and Japanese business person Audrey, who goes by@aitaikimochion Twitter, has revealed new translations concerning Final Fantasy XVI. The new translations reveal that the game is “greatly taking shape,” suggesting the title is further into development than most believed, and that the new trailer for the game is done.
was on a stream about NieR Re[in]carnation. Based on Audrey’s translation, Square Enix producer Naoki Yoshida, aka Yoshi-P, revealed in a Nier Re[in]carnation stream that a new trailer for FF XVI should be dropping “soon.” Yoshi-P specified that multiple factors force the announcement to be delayed. Yoshi-P also said that the dev team of FF XVI is currently working on polishing and debugging the game. Although Audrey originally translated one of Yoshi-P’s quotes as Final Fantasy XVI being “pretty much complete,” she clarified that the literal quote is “it’s greatly taking shape.”

FF16 news by Yoshi-P from the NieR Re[in]carnation stream:-The trailer is done. Certain factors caused the announcement to be delayed, but it should drop “soon”-Dev team spent a long time polishing and debugging the game-The game is pretty much completeLET’S GOOO!!!pic.twitter.com/epeAc9oqWo
Audrey further clarified thatYoshi-P’s quote should not be taken as confirmation that Final Fantasy XVI is complete.Audrey pointed out that there are multiple pieces of information about FF XVI that suggest the game is in its final stage of development, yet the game still has to go through the debugging stage, which can take time.
I figured since Yoshida already told us that the game is in its final development stages (what he said in the Uniqlo FF 35th comment about FF16), that it’s safe to assume that the game is almost complete ASIDE FROM the debugging stages that he wants the team to spend time on.
However, Audrey took Yoshi-P’s statement on the NieR stream as suggesting that the game is almost complete aside from all the bug fixes and testing still needed required. Yoshi-P is heavily involved in multiple Square Enix projects, serving as director for Final Fantasy XIV and is a producer of Final Fantasy XVI.
I’m sorry if that dampens hype due to my quick summary of what he said during the NieR stream. I clarified in the thread a few hours ago already, but some news articles are already floating out there that makes it sound like the game is done, so I figured to clarify even further.
