Alongside the addition of Clive Rosfield, the Phoenix Gate, a pivotal location that alters Clive’s destiny in Final Fantasy 16, will be the next DLC Battle Stage, which has been “brought to life through Eikons and stunning special effects, mirrors key moments of his journey to confront his past.”<\/em><\/strong><\/span> Bandai Namco announced on the Tekken social media channels that the Final Fantasy 16 Joshua Rosfield Collaboration Pack<\/a> has been made available now via the Tekken Shop, which players can acquire three new items, the Bomb King (Red) Tekken Ball and the Undying Red and Nectar the Bold Character Customization options.<\/span><\/p>\n
