Naoki Yoshida, the producer on the highly anticipated Final Fantasy 16, has heaped praise on the PS5‘s considerable technical prowess during a chat with the PlayStation Blog, in particular being quite impressed by the console’s loading times.
It’s only thanks to the power of the PlayStation 5 system that we can make Final Fantasy XVI the roller-coaster ride that it is. With the boost in processing power, we can obviously make the graphics even richer than we could before, but it’s the super-fast loading times that really impress me.
In Final Fantasy XVI, you jump straight from story cutscenes into real-time battles and back again without any loading times, making the gameplay flow at a breakneck pace.
