[Software] Final Fantasy XVI tiene una mala noticia que darte (si juegas en PC)

[FNX Magokiler]

Of course, Final Fantasy XVI will be one of the great protagonists of the year that we have just launched and it is normal that any buzz that occurs around it raises a cloud of dust that leaves us a bit disoriented for a few days. Especially if we have a PC and have ever dreamed of enjoying this title on our powerful hardware designed to squeeze every last frame.

bad news from japan
The fact is that on this occasion the news that comes to us from Square-Enix is not the best if you are a fishbowl that plays everything you can on your PC since, as we feared, the Japanese are not going to put too much effort into reach stores beyond PlayStation consoles (or so it seems). Remember that the relationship with Sony goes back a long way and these exclusive titles for their machines have been our daily bread for the last 29 years.

It has been Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida, producer of Final Fantasy XVI, who has verbalized this bad news during the broadcast of a stream held a few days ago around a New Year's Mahjong tournament, and in which he took advantage of the atmosphere relaxed to remind us that there are no plans that a PC version is even planned or that it will come out after a first release on PlayStation 5.

“There has been talk,” Yoshida said, “that the PC version [of FF XVI] will be coming out, but no one [from the team] has said anything about that version. I wonder why people take it for granted that the PC version will come six months after [the PS5 version], so go ahead and buy yourself a PS5."

 

 

Made up news, right?
The denial of Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida do not think that it occurs because that morning he recalled that some media had speculated about the possibility that the game would end up coming to PC, but because there has been a lot of evidence that has given thought to the community that something like this was contemplated within the roadmap of the video game.

And it is that during the stream of one of the official 2020 PlayStation showcases, a first trailer for Final Fantasy XVI could be seen in which, at the end, the phrase "Also available for PC" appeared. Mention that it disappeared when that same video was published by Square-Enix on its official channels. I mean, when were they telling the truth? With the first of the revelations or by hiding it? Although it was not until last year when, in official material, it was also possible to read (fleetingly) that the game would be an exclusive for six months.

Be that as it may, everything smacks of a marketing move that tries not to reduce sales of the game on PlayStation 5, which, of course, will be the first and only to arrive. Although once six or twelve months have elapsed, the possibility of having a Final Fantasy XVI on PC may be reborn to become a reality. After all, despite the agreements that Square-Enix has with Sony, it has become clear that the Japanese are seduced by reaching PC territory and putting honey on the lips of Xbox owners, who will continue to dream of have an RPG like this on their consoles.
