News | Square Enix: 'Final Fantasy 16 has gone gold'

Final Fantasy 16 has  "gone gold" as reported by Square Enix, meaning development on the game is more or less complete.

“Final Fantasy 16 has gone gold. The entire team, including Torgal, hopes you look forward to the game’s June 22 release,” the company wrote on Twitter.

The term ‘going gold’ implies that there’s a nearly finished version of the game ready to go to print, although nowadays it doesn’t mean development is completely finished; often various patches are still being worked on.

Final Fantasy 16 will be released on PlayStation 5 on June 22 and promises to focus more on action-packed combat than previous installments in the series.
