Final Fantasy 16 (XVI) All Side Quests Guide

Final Fantasy XVI has 76 Side Quests. This guide shows all the Final Fantasy 16 side quests. Doing all Side Quests is needed to get maximum Renown. You need close to maximum Renown to buy all Patron Items for the Careful Whisper trophy.

There is a Point of No Return in “Main Quest 25: The Dame” which makes side quests up to this point unavailable. Everything past this point can still be revisited after the story in Free-Roam and via Stage Replay. Everything relevant for trophies is after the Point of No Return so you can’t miss anything important. The side quests before the Point of No Return don’t give any Renown so it doesn’t matter if you missed them.

For the 32 Hunt Board Quests refer to Final Fantasy XVI Hunt Board Quests (they are a different quest category).
