Once again, the games that are missing from the Final Fantasy saga to arrive on Xbox, that is to say the new saga of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Rebirth and Final Fantasy XVI, seem to be getting closer and closer to the Microsoft console. It is already well known that Square Enix is not really satisfied with the results obtained so far for its “exclusive” versions, which are precisely those that spend the most budget, and with the steps they have taken with others like Octopath Traveler, or the more recent Final Fantasy XIV Online, which seems to work well on Xbox.
And the fact is that only these titles remain, perhaps the most powerful in their catalog, the ones that are constantly on trial. GOOD GamesRadar was able to interview Naoki Hamaguchi, the game director of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and this one, has once again stated that there are no “cross-platform” news at the moment.but you want to bring Final Fantasy 7 Remake to as many players as possible
Hamaguchi owns an Xbox and loves the platform
Perhaps this could be another comment among many that Square Enix has already made in one of its directors or in different ranks, warning of what is to come, precisely, like the Pixel Remaster of Final Fantasy, arrived by surprise on Xbox, after its announcement at the Tokyo Game Show two months ago. However, his most significant statement due to its personal nature from Hamaguchi is it:
The market is already a lot more diverse, so I think that's probably why our CEO, Mr. Kiryu, made the decision to move towards cross-platform, because that's the way the industry is going orients itself. This is just a personal opinion, but I have an Xbox. I think it's a great hardware platform. I like Xbox.
Again, we could classify these words as water over wet, but there are already several signs, which we pointed out at the beginning of the article, which are irrefutable proof of this new direction from Square Enix, and that is Maybe they need some cross-platform direction to become competitive again in an industry that wants to continue growing.
