Along with Diablo 4 and Starfield, Final Fantasy 16 is one of the most talked about games on the internet right now. Thanks to Square Enix and its extensive marketing push as well as the magnificently done two-hour demo, fans are now looking forward to the game to hit the PlayStation 5 on June 22. However, because it's believed to be a massive game (right around 100GB, as per the rumors), those who pre-ordered the game are wondering when they can start pre-loading ahead of the game's release. The good news? It's already started.
Yesterday, June 19, Square Enix confirmed that the pre-load period for Final Fantasy 16 would begin today, June 20.
The news comes from the game's Japanese Twitter account, leaving some confusion as to whether the pre-load time would apply to all regions globally or exclusively to Japan.
What does this pre-load period mean for the game's enthusiastic followers? It offers players the chance to download Final Fantasy 16 ahead of its launch, minimizing waiting time and ensuring players can jump straight into the immersive world of Valisthea as soon as the game is released. With the clock ticking down to FF16's launch on June 22, every second counts, and this pre-load period allows dedicated players to get a head start.
