Square Enix has released (Final Fantasy XVI) Final Fantasy 16 update 1.000.003, and this is the game’s first-ever post-release patch. Players can expect more fixes to be part of this update rather than new content. Read on for what’s new in the FF16 patch notes for July 5 (July 6 for those outside the US).
Final Fantasy 16 Update 1.000.003 Patch Notes | FFXVI July 5 Update Patch Notes:
Size: 267MB
Update: Here are the official patch notes:
- Adds the following items to the System tab of the Main Menu:
- Motion Blur Strength
Allows the player to adjust the strength of the motion blur effect when the character or camera is in motion. The default setting is the maximum of 5. This can be lowered to reduce the strength of the motion blur effect, or set to 0 to turn it off completely. - Player Follow (Movement)
- Player Follow (Attack)
Turning these settings off prevents the camera from automatically following the player while moving and attacking respectively.
- Motion Blur Strength
- Changes the maximum setting of the Camera Sensitivity (Horizontal) and Camera Sensitivity (Vertical) items from 10 to 20.
- Adds three new controller layouts: types D, E, and F.
- Corrects an issue that affected the stability of some menus.
- Corrects some text issues.
- Adds the hashtag #FF16 when sharing screenshots or video clips on Twitter or YouTube.
While Square Enix hasn’t released the official patch notes just yet, we can confirm that this title update adds a Motion Blur slider in the game. Here’s an image we took of it available in the System options after the patch:
Another thing that got added was “Player Follow” in the Camera settings.
Note that Square Enix has said before that they will be rolling out performance updates to the RPG, so expect more patches to be released at some point in the future.
Once the complete patch notes are out or if we find more new stuff added or whatever got fixed, we’ll update the article.
If you haven’t played the game yet, you might want to change that ASAP. Go read our review where we state, “Those looking for the series’ return to glory, rejoice! Final Fantasy XVI is that game, and this is one fantasy you’ll want to make sure you’re a part of.”

🤣🤣 ffxvi is that game. That game that does what? Pretends to be a game but isnt anything but an empty combat rpg / movie?
Pussy article from a pussy reviewer too scared to place its criticisms down on paper and ensure that they are told as actual criticisms. Which this game has fucking tons of. Grow testicles before writing another article
You are a dingle berry.
They should add a dedicated run button. It’s the most annoying thing so far in this game for me. Having Clive only running after a while and then running like a moron automatically when I don’t want him to, is incredibly annoying..
Otherwise, stellar game so far.
