How To Save Your Game in Final Fantasy 16

Before a major junction in a game, it’s often prudent to save first. For this reason, you may want to save your progress while playing Final Fantasy XIV. It creates a point that you can return to and allow you to try something different or to recover from a defeat. Auto-save is another useful feature in gaming, so you may wonder how FF16 handles it. Here’s all you need to know about saving and auto-saving in Final Fantasy 16.

How To Save in FF16

You can create a manual save in Final Fantasy 16 within the game’s menu. This can be done during regular gameplay, but notably, not during any cutscenes. To save the game first open the menu by pressing the Menu Button on your PS5 controller. Then, navigate to the System Settings tab by pressing the R2 trigger.

Once there, find the Save option and press it to open the Save Menu. This menu will show all of your previous save files. Hover over an existing save that you want to overwrite, or over the Create Save Data File title to create a new save, then press X. After a brief moment, your game will be saved and you can access it again from this menu.

Is There Autosave in Final Fantasy 16?

Final Fantasy 16 also comes with an auto-save feature. The auto-save usually triggers right after watching a cutscene. You can see that it’s working by a small saving animation located in the top-right corner of your screen.

You can load an auto-save through the Save Menu, just like a manual save. To navigate to the Save Menu, follow the steps we outlined above. It’s also good to know that if you have quit the game during your previous session without saving, the game will load from your latest save or auto-save file.
