Maybe caused by the publishing rights reverting from Nintendo back to Square Enix. Probably temporary.

Therion's fucking purple chests were a mechanic ripped straight from DK64. I wouldn't care if you could switch party members on the fly but you can't and have to go bavk to town if you don't otherwise always have him in your party. I also found the combat to be a slog.

Nintendo was blocking it from PlayStation but not Xbox.

Hopefully Square publish it on Playstation.
I figured it was the other way around but yeah i could see Nintendo having enough pull with SE to get that to happen.

Nintendo didn't think of them when drawing up the banned platforms. They were shocked when they heard of the Xbox

Never played it, is it fun?
It's like an 8.5-9/10 old school jrpg. Visuals are gorgeous, music is great, combat is refined. Late game can be pretty challenging and requires level grinding so it might not be for everyone, and the story is... fine, a bit hit or miss and disjointed since you can do any of the 8 characters stories in any order

It could be also Microsoft behind it, for not dropping on PS. Remember it was for two years in GP and left in 2023 March 23. Nintendo had only publishing rights for Switch not other platform. But maybe there was an excluding agreement for PS.

They need to bring that to PS4/5 because it's so unusual that the sequel is there without it.

I wonder if we will ever see this on PS?
Shouldnt be so hard to find out who is blocking it. Xbox or Nintendo
