The irony of naming a franchise Final Fantasy and then producing so many mainline titles and spinoffs that you carry through to almost every era of gaming is laughably ironic. But PlayStation fans sure aren't complaining, as the latest instalment of the RPG series has wowed across the globe.

Square Enix's FF16 was a breath of fresh air for gamers, as while the previous game had its moments, it also came with a boatload of issues. However, this title manages to be practically flawless.

One of the biggest plus points of the game is its spectacular storytelling, which tells a complex narrative full of nuanced characters, deep lore, and some mind-blowing set pieces. This jam-packed 40-plus hour experience really gives you your money's worth.

The game is also drenched in spectacle, again really bringing out the power of the PS5. This is a real treat as the focus on high fantasy leads to many visually striking moments in the environments, character models, set pieces, and more.

There are undoubtedly some who miss the turn-based combat of the series, but judging by this user score, there aren't enough detractors to drag the game down.
