Final Fantasy XVI was a title received extraordinarily well, and it was even considered a turning point in the mainline Final Fantasy games. The game was released for the PlayStation 5 in June 2023 and is also confirmed to be released for PC.
While no release date is known for the PC release, Gamescom might finally be time for Square Enix to share updates on the game’s PC release; at least, the fans are speculating about the same.
Dion’s Voice Actor Shares a Cryptic Tweet, Fans Think Final Fantasy 16 PC Release Is Imminent
Given the quality of Final Fantasy 16, it isn’t a surprise that fans want to experience it on PC. After all, PC ports usually come with many more sprinkles like Ultrawide Textures, Native 4K support, and an unlocked framerate. As time passes, fans still seem to be waiting for the game’s release for the Master Race.
Gamescom marks a beacon in space-time for a lot of news regarding some of the most popular games in the industry. Now, eager fans hoping for news on the PC release of the action RPG seem to have gotten some hope.
This is because Stewart Clarke, the voice actor for Dion from the latest Final Fantasy title, shared something cryptic on Twitter, and a video game content creator amplified it, thinking it was a nod toward the game’s slated PC release:
The voice actor of Dion from 'Final Fantasy XVI' is for absoluty no reason excited for Gamescom.

While fans getting excited about the upcoming platform release for the game is understandable. This is all pure speculation, and fans should take this with a generous pinch of salt. However, there was some info regarding the game’s PC release in the latest NVIDIA Game Ready drivers.
The NVIDIA Game Ready Profile Leak for Final Fantasy 16
There are usually some leaks that one doesn’t imagine finding. Something like this happened with Final Fantasy 16, a game fans blamed for Square Enix’s losses. Allegedly, a Redditor found something in NVIDIA‘s latest game-ready driver.
A user shared the release notes for the latest display drivers for the company’s GPUs on the NVIDIA subreddit. Officially, they didn’t have anything out of the blue. However, a Redditor shared proof that the driver had game-ready profiles for Square Enix‘s Action RPG title.
The post on Reddit was published only nine days ago at the time of writing.

This could mean that a PC release for the game is on the cards, which might happen soon. But, all this is too little to go by when looking at it from a realistic lens. There have been previous leaks like this, however, that have been legitimate.
What do you think about the game being announced for PC at Gamescom? Is it possible? Or will Square Enix take its sweet time? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
