Final Fantasy 16 Demo Length

The Final Fantasy XVI Demo lasts around two hours or 120 minutes, but you can also get an extra hour of gameplay time by completing the Eikonic Challenge. The main Demo covers the game’s prologue, and it mostly follows a flashback scene when Clive is still in his teen. During this section, you can learn various basic game mechanics, such as combat and gear, and even gain some insight into the plot of Final Fantasy XVI.

If you decide to purchase the title, you can bring your progress in the Demo into the game’s final version. That means you don’t have to replay the prologue and pass through the tutorial for the second time if you’re not interested.

Once you are done with the main Demo, you can try the Eikonic Challenge from the title menu. This mode is meant to showcase Clive’s fighting prowess, which you can unlock later in the game and may please players who want to see the full potential of FF16’s combat. Unfortunately, the Eikonic Challenge does contain some spoilers since it is set many years after the end of the prologue.

That’s everything you need to know about the length of the Final Fantasy XVI Demo. Before leaving to check out the game, consider reading other Final Fantasy articles on Twinfinite via the links below.
