The original plan was for Square Enix to make a big year-end announcement regarding Final Fantasy XVI. That's not going to happen, and the game has been delayed by at least half a year.

"When we last spoke, I promised I would have more information on Final Fantasy XVI sometime later in 2021," wrote producer Naoki…

     A bunch of Paradox strategy games are going cheap on Steam right now

The 2021 Steam winter sale is in full swing, and that means a ton of the biggest and best PC games going for cheap right now. While there's obviously a whole lot of discounted stuff to check out across a bunch of different genres, one slice of the sale is offering some decent deals on various Paradox strategy games, including bundles aimed at helping bring new players aboard.

The Paradox winter sale has up to 75% off some of the studio's various games, with that full three-quarters discount currently available on city-building simulation game Cities: Skylines, military strategy game Hearts of Iron IV, sci-fi adventure Stellaris, and historical grand strategy game Europa Universalis IV. Crusader Kings III discounted by less, but still 20% off, bringing it down to £33.59 / $39.99, in case you've got that on your wishlist.

Elsewhere there are several starter packs going for cheap, which should prove handy if you've got your eye on any of these but are yet to dive in. The Cities: Skylines new player bundle has the base game plus three key DLC packs - Mass Transit, Industries, and Sunset Harbor - for 64% off.

     Final Fantasy 16's development has been delayed

It looks like we're going to have wait a while longer for our next good look at Final Fantasy XVI. Producer Naoki Yoshida has confirmed that, due to the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the game's development has been delayed "by almost half a year", and that its "next big reveal" will come in spring 2022.

"When we last spoke, I promised I would have more information on Final Fantasy XVI sometime later in 2021," Yoshida explains in a statement shared on the game's Twitter channel (below). "However, I regret to inform you that I will be unable to keep that promise as complications stemming from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have delayed the game's development by almost half a year."

The producer explains that the studio has needed to "decentralise" the large team of creators working on the game and let them work from home due to the ongoing pandemic. This has unfortunately meant, though, that communications from the head office in Tokyo have been "hampered", which has had a knock-on effect on the delivery of assets.

Since our new forms are still coming online from their time spent in the primordial flesh soup vat of the RPS Treehouse, we can't post over Christmas, so we've prepared some Christmas Cracker jokes instead!
