Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker

Edge

March 2022

It pulls out all the stops, capping off its long-running story arc with all the grandeur a Final Fantasy can muster

Developer/publisher Square Enix (Creative Business Unit III)

Format PC, PS4, PS5 [tested]

Release Out now

Finales can be difficult to pull off, not least when a developer and players don’t want a good thing to end. While any long-running series runs the risk of lapsing into dreary familiarity, Final Fantasy XIV has gone from strength to strength with each expansion. It would perhaps be disingenuous to simply call them expansions: each, from Heavensward to Shadowbringers, has stories, destinations and setpieces to rival any standalone RPG. With Endwalker, then, Square Enix’s Creative Business Unit III pulls out all the stops to give its players the Moon and then some, capping off its long-running story arc with all the grandeur a Final Fantasy game can muster, while leaving the door ajar for more adventures.

And perhaps, on that count, even the modest Possessor(s) isn’t quite modest enough — it feels as much a victim of the company’s production woes as a showcase for its creative talent.

Street Fighter 6

Superstition might suggest that even numbers are more auspicious for the series, but it's fairer to say that Capcom learned from the mistakes of Street Fighter V and launched a fighting game that doesn't just feel like a full package, but one that has foundations to build on in future updates.

The Outer Worlds 2

There's always a risk in imitating something regarded as a classic: if it offers a template for success, it could just as easily invite unfavourable comparison. Obsidian Entertainment's Fallout: New Vegas has gained that reputation in the 15 years since its release, and while the original The Outer Worlds, led by Fallout creators Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, referenced that series without aping it, the sequel zeroes in on New Vegas as its direct source of inspiration. This explains both why The Outer Worlds 2 is a success and why it can't quite stand tall as a creation with its own identity.
