The last major content for 2023 Final Fantasy XVI now has a release date. The coming floodthe second of two planned post-release DLCs, coming to PlayStation 5 on April 18. It costs $19.99, but players can also purchase it for $24.99 Expansion pass to gain access to both The coming flood and the first DLC, Echoes of The Fallen. The expansion will revolve around a new area of the map and will also answer one of the base game’s biggest questions: What happened to the Eikon of Water?
The coming flood will transport players to the new land of Mysidia, located in the northern area of the map and hidden in Storm’s northern territory. As shown in the Trailer For the DLC, Mysidia has managed to remain spared from the Plague, the game’s all-consuming plague, and still has stunning blue skies, providing a pleasant contrast to the dreary, overcast skies that dominate the later portions of the game dominated. How this comes about is a mystery that players must solve. Mysidia will be familiar to longtime fans of the franchise, as it has appeared as a city name in previous titles (e.g FF4) and usually functions as a location strongly associated with magic. This appears to be the case FF16 as well as. In any case, Mysidia’s stunning landscape looks just as great as the base game’s locations.
The trailer’s unknown narrator gives us some background information about Mysidia. The land appears to be something of a haven for porters (magic users who are often enslaved in the world). FF16), who ran away from law enforcement. The narrator speaks of the people of Mysidia creating a new Mother Crystal through the sacrifice of a single child, possibly the Dominant (individuals who wield the power of god-like beings called Eikons) of Leviathan, the Eikon of Water. FF16 It was mentioned in the lore that the Eikon of Water had been missing for ages, so Clive and his crew must discover the history of Mysidia and its origins. Jill is also from the north, and the trailer for it The coming flood mentions Shiva in detail, whose dominant is Jill, so we can only hope that she is given more depth and agency in the DLC than in the base game.
