FFXVI Teaser Shows Cid Using Ramuh’s Power

Leading up to the launch of the latest Final Fantasy, Square Enix is sharing brief clips of major characters. The latest FFXVI teaser stars Cidolfus “Cid” Telamon and Ramuh. Cid is the Dominant of Ramuh, and he’s also not aligned with any particular nation. Instead, he’s living in the deadlands with a group of people forging their own path.

Here’s the FFXVI video showcasing Cid and Ramuh’s power. It begins with Ramuh himself, then the 2D artwork of Cid. From there, we see snippets of him in the game, including when he’s channeling Ramuh’s power without completely turning into the Eikon.
