The 'basic development' for Final Fantasy 16 is already done, giving further reason to believe it won't keep us waiting nearly as long as Final Fantasy 15 did.
The update on the game's development comes from a recruitment page on Square Enix's Japanese career site. It was spotted by Japanese gaming site Game's Talk and then translated by Gematsu.
“We have already completed basic development and scenario production, and are continuing to create large-scale resources and build boss battles while expanding our various development tools,” the listing says. “Also, most of our staff are carrying out their work remotely.”
On the other hand, Naoki Yoshida helped oversee the revival of Final Fantasy 14 and three big, story-filled expansions in the last seven years. Hopefully he'll keep that punctual output going now that he's the producer of Final Fantasy 16.
