Director of FF16 Reveals High Possibility of PC Version for Upcoming Installment from Day One

Hiroshi Takai, the director of the game Final Fantasy 16, was interviewed by GamesRadar+ in light of the announcement of the PC version release date on September 17th, after approximately 15 months since the PS5 version. This decision was made as Final Fantasy 16 is a PS5 exclusive for a certain period. Fans are curious if the next installment of Final Fantasy will have a PC version from Day 1 or if events will repeat themselves like with FF16. Square Enix has acknowledged that the exclusivity strategy did not yield the desired results, prompting a shift towards developing more multi-platform games.

Takai responded evasively, stating it’s “possible – probably even likely,” emphasizing that each development team has the autonomy to make such decisions. He disclosed that the FF16 development team is eager to release the PC version as quickly as possible, expediting the porting process to achieve the best outcome. According to him, the time invested in creating a quality PC version is well worth it.
