Despite a thought at the time, Square Enix wasn’t done with it Final Fantasy XVI. At the time, we all thought the story of Clive and company was over, and there was no way DLC or a sequel would ever be made. However, this, as you already know, is not the case. While we already knew that two expansions were already in development for this installment, it wasn’t until The Game Awards last week that we finally got a look at the additional content. The first of these, known Fall echoes It’s available now, and here we tell you if it’s worth it.
In the beginning, Fall echoes It takes place moments before the final battle against Origin, so this content is in a game you’ve already progressed through. However, this extra story doesn’t have much impact on the story or Clive’s narrative arc. Instead, Here we are presented with an additional adventure that serves to expand the already vast context of this world. After the appearance of a series of black crystals, our heroes must embark on an adventure to discover where these products come from and prevent them from reaching the world at large.
This leads Clive and company to an additional dungeon focused entirely on combat. This is where most of the adventure happens. While this new location looks just as spectacular as the rest of the original game, its content does Fall echoes It may seem too small. Dilation lasts two or three hours, and beyond these additional locations, there are no additions that completely change the way we play. Our powers are the same, and nothing else has been added to the war. In addition, the design of this dungeon is similar to the rest of the title, that is, it is very linear, with multiple rooms that only present us with enemies to defeat.
Of course, the pain is much greater. Mini-bosses and bosses at the end of dungeons can be even more challenging than Origins, so those who wanted to get the most out of the fantastic combat system can do so here. To make this adventure more interesting, Fall echoes It also adds several new weapons, including Cloud’s Buster Sword, as well as additional music to listen to in your hideout.
Unfortunately, aside from replaying the DLC in Final Fantasy mode, There is no great incentive to replay its echo fallen. You will see all of this content for us in a few hours. This can be frustrating for many people, especially considering its price. dislike God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla, this expansion costs $10 dollars, which isn’t a bad price for the type of content offered here. Along with this, a season pass is also available, which not only includes this additional experience, but will also give us access The Rising TideThat will arrive sometime in the spring of 2024.
For those who love the base experience Final Fantasy XVIThis DLC is something you must have. Not only does this give us more content, it also provides a good excuse to enjoy Clive’s journey again, especially for those who haven’t gotten all the trophies, or enjoyed the Final Fantasy mode.
It’s a little dessert that prepares us for the arrival The Rising TideWhich clearly looks like the next big step Final Fantasy XVI. This is a plus for all the fans, but those who were not fans of this installment, They will totally wait for the next DLC. On a related topic, you can check out our review here Final Fantasy XVI.
