As we all know, Sony has planned a new PlayStation 5 Showcase on September 16, where we expect the price and date of the upcoming console.
But together, Sony is expected to announce some more exclusives that we have not seen to date. One of them may be the next numbered game in the Final Fantasy series, at least according to the rumors of the last few days.
According to various sources, Shinji Hashimoto head of the Final Fantasy brand uploaded a Tweet in which he was excited about the upcoming Sony event.

The unusual thing is that a few minutes later, he deleted his Tweet, which raised several suspicions. Also, a new Twitter account, named @ FF16_JP has uploaded a few days ago, which further strengthens the gossip.
Also, even if Final Fantasy XIV is announced the day after tomorrow, we all know that it will be released no earlier than two years after its announcement, based on what we have seen so far with the release of Final Fantasy titles.
However, four years have passed since the release of Final Fantasy XV, so maybe it’s time for the company to show us something new.
