If there’s one thing everyone wants to know when booting up a new game like Final Fantasy 16 these days, it’s whether or not you can pet the dog. We all love interacting with dogs, cats, and other furry pals in our games, so it’s a pretty reasonable question to ask. In the case of FF16, not only does your companion Torgal venture the world with you and assist you in battle, but he also lets you pet him nearly any time you’d like.
How to Pet Torgal in Final Fantasy 16
Torgal can be a rather useful ally to have in battles, as he can dish out some extra damage and even offer a little bit of healing to aid Clive in staying alive. But when you’re not battling massive monsters, he’s still happy to be by your side. You can show him how appreciative you are to have his companionship by giving a pat on the head or a quick bit of play.
To pet Torgal, approach him while not in combat and hold down the X button. Doing so will trigger one of a few different interactions that will remind this trust pal that he’s simply the bestest boy around. After petting him five times, you’ll even get a trophy aptly titled “You Can Pet the Dog.”
That’s how to pet the dog in Final Fantasy 16! Enjoy rewarding the best boy with all of the pets he deserves. While you’re here, check out everything we know about a possible Final Fantasy 16 PC release.
