Previously said the main character used fire and earth elemental moves, but there's a wind element shown too. Seems like we have a weapon in our main hand and a summon-powered elemental skill in our offhand.
FFXVI trailer analysis:
The trailer opens with 4 people, including our supposed protagonist sitting around a campfire. A leader with an interesting tattoo briefs them on a mission to hunt down Shiva.
Some additional details I've noticed/read:
- Japanese trailer says they're going to assassinate Shiva's Dominant, likely the person linked to Shiva.
- English trailer has subtitles, "Dominant", "Shield", "Dhalmeks", "Crusaders"
- Meeting seems to be an alliance of sorts
