Square is saved.
Their CEO is a genius. Amazing strategy. /s

It's quite a demanding game, I doubt it would run on a PS4 level system.
I'm no tech expert though...so maybe there is a chance.
It would have to be downgraded a lot. Maybe SE should make a 2.5D turn-based version instead.
Have you seen how the new mortal kombat and Hogwarts look on the switch.......... The point of 16 was to have these massive playable eikon fights which previously were only cutscenes. Downscaling everything to get it to run on a toaster is just sad
Switch 2, but I get what you are saying.
What's the best selling Square game on Switch not named Dragon Quest?
I bet it sold way better than FFXVI on PC. Where do you think Square should look for more customers? Xbox?
It doesn't matter if a game fails on any platform (even with miserable sales on Xbox/PC) equally if a game sells well on PS Square it will be like this:
Other platforms:
PlayStation: :

I think they should try and get their core gamers back who they've abandoned for the last 15+ years.
It's gonna go up but you would think it would explode out the gate the way they were talking about the PC and Xbox fans just waiting with baited breath.
Is that bitch Imran Khan going to talk about the underperformance or that was reserved for the PS5 version only? Zhuge?
It's at 4,151

I don't think even switch 2 will be able to run it, FF won't do what square wants to do on switch. They have the DQ for the switch users, better focus on that for the switch playerbase.
Exclusivity will be looked on in a positive light with time because FF is not an IP that will do 10 million+ in 3 days, never was and never will be.
If Square wants those numbers they are better of trying to create a new IP.
I agree. SE needs fresh ideas for the mainline FF games and to focus on PS first. That's where the vast majority of their customers are, the ones who buy their games at full price
Final Fantasy games will only sell on PlayStation platforms and maybe Nintendo. It was a waist of money to port this to PC.
They should have sold even more AAA studios for cheap so they could spend more resources to push NFTs.
you mean turn based? i wonder if that would work, XV being full action had sales in just a few years that blowed the old games out of the water that needed decades and rerelases to achieve
Is there any review of this game for PC out there?
Looks like Square Enix sent around 0 keys to reviewers and there's been no marketing around the port whatsoever. The game's Steam page has 24 reviews as of now.
The only negative thing I'm reading about it is the fact that cutscenes run at 30FPS and there's no support for UltraWide (both of which are pretty terrible in 2024 to be honest).

Let's see if it does 3 million in it's first week like the other topic stated on a base of billions/ 130 MAU on Steam.
It was all about Square and the list wars for the detractors not the actual game.
