How To Unlock Buster and Onion Sword In Final Fantasy XVI

The Buster and Onion Sword is a special bonus item given to those who have downloaded the new update for the game. It can be accessed in the game menu and equipped by Clive.

To unlock them, you will need to head into the System menu. From there, go to the last tab, which is the Redeemable Item. You will find the three bonus items there: Buster Sword, Onion Sword, and Away (1987) Orchestrion Roll.

These weapons have a default base stat of 160 Attack and 160 Stagger, which might be weak if you are already at the end game. You can get the Ultimate Weapon which is far more powerful compared to these bonus weapons, but there is no doubt that these are iconic weapons to equip and use in the game.

Final Fantasy XVI is out now for PS5. The game is also in development for PC.
