Final Fantasy 16 was announced

I just want to know who the music composer is.
Is it Nobuo because he branded himself with the FF series?
Sokken because the trailer music they used, AND because he is part of Yoshida's team so it would make sense for them to utilize Sokken?
Or is it Yoko Shimamura once again since she did splendidly in XV?

I tried searching but, of course the information with this kind of detail wouldn't be released yet....

Also, I can't tell because of the crappy video quality on my screen even if its at its highest HQ... But... One can assume this is Luminous Engine.
However, (as it could just be my horrid eyesight,) I swore there are some parts where I could see some Crystal Engine elements.

developed by business unit 3, aka the one Yoshida's in charge of, if I saw it correctly.

well, time for some speculation now: I recall an older interview in which Yoshida stated that he'd be willing to pass on one of his 2 positions (can't remember if it was director or producer specifically) to someone else with MMO dev experience. Yosuke Saito (the other guy from the NieR raid) jokingly stated in his video message during last years anniversary stream that he'd love to join the XIV team and take over as producer. Saito and Yoshida have already worked together before on Dragon Quest X.
So, should Yoshida be involved with FF16, then I won't be surprised if Saito fully joins the XIV team and takes over one of Yoshida's positions

Yoshi-P is credited as Producer on 16. Plus, well I'm sure there are a few 14 employees working on 16. Since it looks like an HD cutscene from 14.

Huh, they threw the term's eikon and mothercrystal there, seems XIV actually has been a big influence, if not proof of Yoshida's involvement in the game...

Looking forward to this! Final Fantasy XVI makes me think of Final Fantasy XIV but with Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings influences.

I can't say I'm extremely excited for the combat though. There's too much Action RPG in the market and I was kind of hoping for a classic Turn-based RPG like Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI based on ATB instead.

I already have my Action RPG fix with Monster Hunter, Dark Souls, and many others currently out in the market. Project Athia is also coming out as an Action RPG too. I was hoping for Final Fantasy returning to its roots.

Either way, I'm still very excited to see more from this game. I expect a lot from Creative Business Unit III.

Ehh, I need to see more honestly, but it doesn't look bad. I do love the throwback logo that they used; reminded me of FFX/FFX-2.

This trailer made me wish this was the April's fool joke ff16 and the latter being the real ff16.

For Yoshida's love of animal races we saw 0 in all of that.

For Yoshida's love of animal races we saw 0 in all of that.

Maybe FFXIV soured him to unusual races. Then again, he's just the producer for FFXVI.

I'm uncontainably excited, that trailer was a high quality Italian pizza fresh out of the oven

I loved the Medieval setting! I don't play FF games except for XIV, but I'm interested in this story. It looks darker than the average FF, somehow.
