Side Quests

In this guide to Final Fantasy XVI side quests, we'll explain how to unlock the side quests and all the tips for completing them.

In FF16, you'll find 76 side quests. In this guide, we'll show you the location of all the quests, so you'll need to complete almost all of them to gain maximum Renown. This will enable you to buy all the rewards you need to obtain the "Careful Whisper" trophy.

The side quests at the start of the game don't bring any Renown, and you can complete them all after the end of the game if you've missed any. There are also 32 Hunt Board Quests available, which will be explained on the dedicated page.
