    Final Fantasy XVI: How to Transfer Demo Save Data

    Transfer that data over!

    Final Fantasy XVI is officially out, which means it is time to transfer over your demo save data. This can be confusing to many as Square Enix has not outlined the process for data to be transferred over to the full game. This is usually documented within the demo or main menu; however, that is not the case here. 

    No worries though, as the process is easier than you ever could have imagined. Here’s exactly how you can transfer your save data from the Final Fantasy XVI demo to the full game.

    How to Transfer Final Fantasy XVI Demo Save Data to Full Game

    In order to transfer your save, you need to first make sure you’ve completed the prologue section of the demo. If you’ve done that and arrived at the “Thank you for Playing!” screen, here are the steps you need to follow next.

    1. Download Final Fantasy XVI
    2. Once it is downloaded, open the game.
    3. Your save data will automatically be recognized and instantly transferred to the full release of FFXVI.

    With the power of the PlayStation 5 architecture, a save data system like this is possible. You don’t need to worry about transferring anything over manually or loading the save in a specific state. That all happens behind the scenes as soon as you enter the world of Valisthea in the full release of Final Fantasy XVI

    Final Fantasy XVI Is Out Now

    Final Fantasy XVI is being developed by Creative Business Unit III, led by Director Hiroshi Takai and Producer Naoki Yoshida. CBUIII is behind the critically acclaimed MMO Final Fantasy XIV, which continues to grow each year.

    Clive Rosfield is the main protagonist of the title, voiced by Ben Starr. He is the only playable character, as the game has a high action focus, or at least more so than previous Final Fantasy titles. Combat design has been directed by Ryota Suzuki, who was a key member of the Devil May Cry 5 and Dragon’s Dogma combat design teams. 

    A brand new free Final Fantasy XVI demo is available to play now! This demo allows players to play through two sections, the Prologue of FFXVI and the Eikonic Challenge. You’ll be able to get a taste of the game’s story, world, and combat with this demo. If you’re on the fence about purchasing the game, this is a great way to get a taste of the world of Valisthea and the combat it offers. You can learn all about the demo by checking out the posts below.

    Final Fantasy XVI is set to launch on June 22, 2023, exclusively on PlayStation 5.
