During the latest Final Fantasy 14 Live Letter from the Producer stream, a few new details about the next mainline entry in the series came out from producer Naoki Yoshida. The team has finished the main story scenario for Final Fantasy 16 and the English voiceovers are almost done being recorded. Unfortunately, Yoshida-san also said that Final Fantasy 16 won't be making an appearance at Tokyo Game Show 2021. (TGS 2021 is scheduled to take place from September 30 to October 3.)

This information comes from a translation via the r/FFXIV Discord channel of a conversation between Yoshida-san and Nier director Yoko Taro during the livestream.

Creative Business Unit III--the Square Enix development team behind FFXIV--is also on Final Fantasy 16, which is the next major single-player entry in the iconic RPG franchise coming to PlayStation 5. While Yoshida-san remains the director and producer for FFXIV while also taking on the role of lead producer for Final Fantasy 16.
