The Game Awards have announced on Twitter that the Final Fantasy 16 producer, Naoki Yoshida, will be making a special appearance at the ceremony, and many fans of the series are speculating that he's coming with big news. FF16 is up for the Most Anticipated Game award with it expecting to launch sometime in 2023, but with no official release date yet, The Game Awards may be the perfect time to announce one.
It's been over two years since FF16 was announced, and during the 2022 Summer Game Fest, it got a trailer confirming it to be a timed PlayStation 5 exclusive, while also announcing it would launch in 2023. There hasn't been much news since then, though Brazil's ratings board for video games giving it a 16+ the other week, and in late October, Yoshida stated the game has "entered the home stretch", with development in the final stages.
