Final Fantasy XVI update 1.31 adds button mapping, skill sets, photo mode
features
Final Fantasy XVI received a free update today ahead of its planned release of
The Rising Tide DLC on April 18, 2024. Update 1.31 includes a multitude of
changes for Clive's Eikonic arsenal and his accessories as well as new
orchestrion rolls inscribed with the game's music (more than 30, according to
DLC director Takeo Kujiraoka). We also get welcome updates to system features,
such as the ability to map buttons to the controller instead of picking from a
pre-selected configuration, and the ability to quickly return to a quest giver
once the requirements have been compelted. You can also save a set of Eikonic
abilities into a "Skill Set" - five of them to be precise. This feature will
allow Clive to swap more quickly between his abilities based on the challenges
you're undertaking. This will likely come in handy for the upcoming Kairos Gate
dungeon, a roguelite-ish adaptation for the game that will see Clive descend
through greater and greater battle challenges. Final Fantasy XVI is now
available on PlayStation 5. Check out today's patch notes below: Updates

Final Fantasy XIV Live Letter 80 Summary; Graphics Update, New Blacklist
Features
In the 80th Letter from the Producer Live broadcast, the Final Fantasy XIV team
talked at length about the upcoming graphics update to the game in the Dawntrail
expansion. This time around, we got a closer look at how areas old and new will
look after the update is implemented, as well as some of the graphics settings
you can adjust. We also learned more about new features being added to the
blacklist function, including the ability to mute players and prevent them from
entering your estate. The team also shared the upcoming schedule until the
Dawntrail expansion, which will see a multitude of returning collaborations and
events. But, to kick things off, the team shared that the official Dawntrail
benchmark will be releasing on Sunday, April 14th. Players can use this
benchmark to assess their PC specs to determine how well the game runs before
launch. 7.0 Graphics Update In Patch 7.0, when the Dawntrail expansion arrives,
new areas will take full advantage of the updated graphics and older areas have
been updated as well. The team showed side-by-side footage of the game as it
appears now (in Patch 6.58) and how it will look in 7.0. Immediately apparent is

Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail benchmark available April 14, trailer released
The benchmark for Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail will arrive on Sunday, April 14th
at midnight Pacific time. This application will allow PC players to test their
current specs performance ahead of the fifth expansion's launch on July 2, 2024.
This comes ahead of a massive graphics update that the team highlighted during
the latest Letter from the Producer Live broadcast which provided more in-game
footage of how the game's areas and models would look following Patch 7.0. The
update has also led to the team increasing the minimum requirements for the
game, with a recent revision to the CPU to account for models that are being
phased out. The benchmark will include the contents of the trailer below, but
will also let players create their own female hrothgar character, who will be
added once the Dawntrail expansion hits. Final Fantasy XIV is now available on
Windows PC, Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series S|X, and Mac.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth update 1.030 fixes trophy quest progression bugs
A new minor update is out for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth that addresses a
progression bug impacting a quest needed to claim a PlayStation trophy -
preventing some completionists from their Platinum trophy. It involves a quest
chain players can undertake upon their return to the Gold Saucer in Chapter 12.
The quest requires a player to achieve a specific number of points in the G-Bike
minigame, and it appears it was not functioning correctly between the last minor
update and now. Players who want to progress this quest after the update will
need to play G-Bike and obtain the requisite score again, but the quest progress
up until that point will not need to be replayed. The "Cactuar Crusher" trophy
also has fixed due to an issue that prevented its acquisition despite meeting
the score requirement, as well as issues preventing the progression of Chadley's
intel, and, in rare circumstances, situations where certain Battle Simulator
challenges would not activate after completing the requisite challenges. Other
updates address issues where under certain conditions where the game would soft
lock after loading a save. It will also display the state of the last game's
save data for players who may be repeatedly loading

SaGa Emerald Beyond introduces Diva No. 5, new worlds, and Mr. S
In the latest update for SaGa Emerald Beyond, we get a look at yet another
protagonist you can choose for your adventure: Diva No. 5. She's a mech that's a
popular singer and dancer in the royal city of Avalon, where industry has
rapidly developed. But, once she sings a forbidden song, Diva No. 5 loses her
memory and her ability to sing. She abandons her humanoid body and leaves
Avalon. Diva No. 5 joins the National Extradimensional Exploratory Task Force
headed by Constantine, her former manager, and encounters other characters that
will join her retinue. Mechs are also a special type of unit in combat, where
their stats do not increase from fighting battles, but by the strength of the
armaments they acquire and equip. This is true for Diva No. 5, and she'll be
able to change her body type as the game progresses. Two-handed swords come in
three different types: greatswords, katana, and polearms, each with unique
properties that all come with the ability to increase enmity, drawing enemy
attention to their users and away from others. Ritgrams are a mini-game that
will require you to collect and combine various pieces to slot into place, and

Front Mission 2 Remake comes to PC, PlayStation, and Xbox on April 30, Steam
demo available today
Front Mission 2 Remake will release April 30th, 2024 for Windows, PlayStation 4,
PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Previously released on Nintendo
Switch in October 2023, the game is developed by Storm Trident and published by
Forever Entertainment. It's a remake of the original 1997 PlayStation title,
which never released outside Japan until this version. It continues the strategy
RPGs use of mechanical Wanzers piloted by humans, and takes place twelve years
after the events of the first game. Wanzers move and act in turns, and are
highly customizable outside of battle. The game centers around a geopolitical
conflict set on a near-future Bangladesh, where rapid industrialization creates
a war economy bubble that bursts. The ensuing instability causes a faction to
secede from Bangladesh and the OCU to form the People's Republic of Alordesh.
Following this, the game's three protagonists from the OCU are caught up in a
coup d'etat, but eventually infiltrate Alordesh and discover a conspiracy. A
demo for the Steam version of Front Mission 2 Remake is available now. Front
