As such, many fans have been wondering if Final Fantasy 16 will feature any sort of multiplayer features or co-op gameplay. Although you only control Clive in the newest Final Fantasy title, players are still curious if they can group up with any of their friends and explore Valisthea as a group. Whether players want to bring the FFXIV Online experience to the new game or if they're only interested in multiplayer games, I have an answer in the guide below. Can you play co-op in Final Fantasy 16? Unfortunately, as many players likely guessed, there are no multiplayer features in FF16, which means you won't be able to play the game in co-op. While this might be disappointing for some players, this is the primary direction of the franchise. Most of the entries in the series are strictly single-player, although you may sometimes be able to control multiple characters. Of course, that's not the case in FF16, as you only control Clive throughout the entire game (barring a few small sections). This gameplay decision makes it impossible for co-op to work, as it would be quite strange to have duplicates of Clive walking around the world at the same time. That's my opinion, at least. Related: Is Final Fantasy 16 coming to Xbox Series X? Final Fantasy has mainly let players live out their multiplayer dreams in FFXIV Online and kept the mainline entries single-player. So for now, FF16 will be a single-player-only game and not feature any sort of multiplayer. Perhaps something could change in the future when FF16 arrives on PC, as modders could add some form of co-op mod. Although, when FF15 was released on PC, modders couldn't quite make any sort of multiplayer mod possible, so I think that may ultimately be a difficult task in FF16 as well.
