Sony and Square Enix Unveil Final Fantasy XVI Themed PS5 DualSense Controller and Console Faceplate

Final Fantasy fans will love this …

Taken from TPU … Sony PlayStation and Square Enix are engaged in the process of hyping up blockbuster action role-player Final Fantasy XVI, set for a worldwide release on June 22, and have recently announced some visually striking accessories and interesting hardware bundles – as part of the promotional cycle and eventual release of the sixteenth (mainline) Final Fantasy game installment. Their Japanese marketing teams are collaborating on a custom design PlayStation 5 DualSense controller and console faceplate/cover bearing Final Fantasy XVI-based artwork. The controller’s Midnight Black + gold accenting combo creates a very macho aesthetic, which stands in sharp contrast to some of the recent special edition Xbox controllers in terms of color and finish.

The special edition controller and console plate will be sold separately and are scheduled to launch alongside the game and related console bundles on June 22. These Final Fantasy XVI-themed accessories could be exclusive to the Japanese domestic market – Sony and Square Enix have issued information related to pricing in Yen (Â¥8980 & Â¥7980 respectively), and their North American and European sites only make mention of the standard white PS5 console FFXVI bundle being available on the game’s launch day.

The sun is setting upon the land of Valisthea
For centuries, people have flocked to her Mothercrystals to partake of their blessing—the abundant aether that fuels the magicks they rely upon in their everyday lives. As the aether begins to fade and the lifeless deadlands spread ever further, so too does the struggle for possession of the final flickers of the Mothers’ light grow ever more fierce. Yet amidst the gathering storm, there are those who believe that the legacy of the crystals has shaped mankind’s destiny for long enough.

Final Fantasy XVI is set to launch exclusively on Sony PlayStation 5 on June 22, 2023. A PC version is expected at a later date, but Square Enix has not revealed any launch window details.
