Final Fantasy XV was even worse
Square Enix
What we ended up playing as Final Fantasy XV began life as two different games Square Enix had the beautiful idea of cobbling together. The end result was one game with the problems of two. On top of the wackiness that tends to power the plots of Final Fantasy games, now players also had to watch a movie that they sold separately and an anime series to understand the entire plot. A lot of people criticized the game for telling the story of four men who went on a road trip as if that’s a bad thing, but the relationship between the four main leads is by far the best thing about it.

Ariana Grande exists in the Final Fantasy Canon
Square Enix
It’s a mobile game, but that still counts. This is a pretty weird pick for the first famous person to enter the Final Fantasy canon, but this isn’t just regular Ariana – it’s Dangerous Ariana, so there’s that.
