Sq. Enix has made it completely clear that after the industrial underperformance of Remaining Fantasy 16 and Remaining Fantasy 7 Rebirth, it intends to undertake a multiplatform launch technique going ahead. And although it’s trying more and more probably that Remaining Fantasy 16 will launch for Xbox sooner relatively than later, Remaining Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth each stay unique to PlayStation (whereas the latter isn’t even out there on PC).
And whereas nothing official has but been introduced on that entrance, Remaining Fantasy 7 Rebirth director Naoki Hamaguchi appears to be indicating that an Xbox launch could be very a lot one thing that Sq. Enix is planning on for each remakes.
Talking with GamesRadar, he talked about wanting to succeed in “as many gamers as potential” with the Remake trilogy, saying, “When it comes to Remaining Fantasy 7, there’s nothing actually we will say in the intervening time, however actually I do need to deliver Remaining Fantasy 7 and the Remake sequence to as many gamers on the market as potential, so we need to create that state of affairs, that surroundings, the place extra gamers can play the video games in future, and we need to look in that path.”
He added, “It’s a lot extra diversified now, so I feel that’s that’s in all probability why our CEO, Mr. [Takashi] Kiryu, made that call to maneuver extra within the path of multiplatform – that’s simply the way in which that the business goes.”
Hamaguchi went on so as to add that personally, he’s an Xbox fan himself. “That is only a private opinion now, however I’ve bought an Xbox myself. I feel it’s an awesome {hardware} platform. I do like Xbox.”
Stories have beforehand claimed that although Sq. Enix is internally discussing Xbox ports for Remaining Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth, they’re not but within the works, although based mostly on Hamaguchi’s statements, it does appear to be the corporate intends to deliver each video games to Microsoft’s consoles sooner relatively that later.
Whether or not which means the ultimate instalment of the Remake trilogy will see a day and date Xbox launch ought to be fascinating to see, although that’s in all probability a handful of years down the highway.
