Sometimes Clive moves too slow for his own good, especially when he’s out running on sprawling fields. There isn’t exactly a movement tutorial in Final Fantasy XVI besides tilting to walk/run, so you may be wondering if you can sprint in the game.
FF16 sprint – is it possible?
Yes, you can sprint in Final Fantasy 16, but only in selected areas. More specifically, you can only sprint in open fields and/or maps with monsters in them. Clive will never sprint in cities, villages, and walled structures. If you tilt your left joystick in one direction long enough, Clive will sprint automatically.
Fortunately, towns and cities are not very big places. And if they are too big, the devs usually place two to three Obelisks you can use to fast travel. I personally like enjoying the scenery when I play anyway, so it’s best to take everything slow.
How to get a Chocobo in Final Fantasy 16
Eventually, you’ll also have the ability to ride a Chocobo around. You can get one once you complete The White-Winged Wonder side quest in the ruined Grand Duchy of Rosaria. This is after the events with Martha in The Gathering Storm (Chapter 22).
