This is supposed to be the news that would set the internet on fire. even though the exclusivity period already ended for Playstation last year and ff15 was on Xbox.
He said that the whole set the internet on fire was a misquote but I still don't believe this.

Square is still busy with the DLC and PC port. The core team of CB III have also moved on to Dawntrail and the balance to Rebirth. I doubt an Xbox port is at the top of their priority list, especially since Square don't seem to be keen on Game Pass deals anymore.

If it comes then great, a port of a game that will be close to 3 years old at that point comes to a platform that's going third-party anyway. Don't see it attracting anyone to Xbox though. Social media points and not much else will follow.

Yup, pretty much the only thing this will do for them is social media talking points.

I don't see Sony letting it go that easily, especially to Xbox. The SIE credits in the game are huge. 6 month-timed exclusive was probably for PC, just like VII. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong but it just seems so odd.

Who knows what deals SIE management made though, they've been complacent since House left.

All those FF are coming over just like XIV was announced.

All 3rd party 'exclusive' games, including those 3rd parties purchased by Microsoft, regardless of what platform they are on, will be releasing on all consoles.

Despite the funny financial figures, the gaming industry is in a real bad shape at the moment and these companies need to make money where possible and however possible.

Sony should drop their dealings with SE, they invest too much on their games, from devs to marketing. If SE wants to be in bed with Xbox even though it’s a gamepass machine, then so be it, but Sony should just leave them to their own devices. I don’t understand why Sony keeps saving SE, for what?

I don’t see any confirmation anywhere. Sorry.

Green rats only goal is to try and get PlayStation 3rd party games.

Shows that Bethesda and Activision are still not enough and they know it.

Add this with the Jez Gordon rumor with FF7
