All Acts In Final Fantasy 16
Final Fantasy XVI will follow Clive in different stages of his life. There are three acts, one that focuses on him as a teen, one in his early twenties, and one where he is in his thirties. Each has its own list of companions to unlock and side content to explore.
The Maximum Level In Final Fantasy 16
There are two different level caps in the game, depending on what mode you are playing. During your initial playthrough of the game, Clive will start at level 10 and progress to a maximum level of 50.
In order to level past 50, you will need to use New Game Plus, selecting Final Fantasy Mode. While playing Final Fantasy Mode, the level cap will instead be 100.
All Chapters In Final Fantasy 16
There are sixty-eight main story missions in Final Fantasy XVI, each of which you'll need to beat in order to complete the game.
