Final Fantasy XVI: The Rising Tide looks to lift Jill

Final Fantasy XVI released last year, but Square Enix is still releasing major new content for the game. The second big DLC, The Rising Tide, will debut on April 18.

The base game had a big focus on Eikons, those giant creatures that Final Fantasy fans have summoned and fought across the series. But one of the most popular, Leviathan, was missing. Well, now that water serpent gets a starring role in The Rising Tide, which sees Clive and company travel to the northern land of Mysidia. This includes Jill, a character that some players and critics wished had more to do in the original story.
