Yeah sure, tomorrow they'll stop selling FFXVI in PS5 and will cancell the FFVII Rebirth PS5 version. Wednesday they'll announce both FFXVI and FFVII Rebirth will be Xbox now full exclusives instead.
Square Enix CEO Takashi Kiryu "Planning to Bring (More) Games to Xbox for Players to Enjoy"
- Thread starter John Elden Ring
- Start date
I like this guy, he won't bow down to the grib of sony's cancerous exclusives deals, Capcom and Konami are outta that grip, only SE is still struggling hence their yearly reports of disappointing sales
Didn't another reputable insider say (not predict) that Sony would get MORE, not fewer, exclusives from SE?
Good choice from SE if so. Tie your brand to the dominant hardware and enjoy the success.

The extra two copies sold on xbox would've really made a huge difference.
Yeah exclusive deals are money for SE

The games media did this game dirty.
Actually the game is very unique, the problem is the girl cursing way too much, that's a guy thing, the weird Luminous engine will always be weird since FF15 it hardly got better looking, still issues with the sky gamma levels being plain white spots , although with HDR on it is a pretty looking game as long as you don't look up the sky.
Yes from trashera.
Said it’s going to get worse, in response to someone bothered by Sony and SE exclusive deals.
It's not a vague prediction, it's Square's CEO outright confirming it.
He didn’t confirm anything.
The poster is not talking about that anyway. He’s talking the person in that Twitter post guessing FF games will be on Xbox.
The thread was bumped because of that.
Not sure how you got confirmation, but it sounded like they are planning to "Whenever" possible. Well what does that mean? Time will tell but i will bet it wont be anything Sony is heavily marketing. I would expect titles like forspoken and star ocean.
Xbox leakers 101
say something massive is coming
say they've been misquoted
then say its a prediction not a leak

You’re one of those green rats or mustard race that believe games that don’t sell on Xbox should be on there anyway huh? Reality check….companies aren’t a charity. They actually want to make money.
You speak as if Square Enix is missing some huge revenue by not having their AAA games on Xbox. That is not a place where games sell. Definitely not Japanese styled games. There’s a reason round trips to Japan are constantly made begging for ports.
This Phil Spencer guy is a showboater and people like you fall for things like this believing it means anything other than to hype up the green zombie army and something to make the media talk. MS only does this because PlayStation is known for 3rd party exclusives, and the main platform for 3rd party games in general, so they try and take away the advantage Sony has. It does not work in case you haven’t noticed.
Even if it’s just to muddy the perception MS is fine with doing that. They’re are a desperate company begging for acceptance.
Let me ask you a question. How many Square Enix games released on Xbox in 2022?
Yeah exclusive deals are money for SE
They are money. Sony pays for some of them and also helps with the marketing which is more money in Square Enix pockets and less money out.
In the case of FF16, Sony actually helped with development.
These deals Sony does are not just-here take this money and keep this game off this platform-It’s an actual partnership that benefits both parties and makes business sense. PlayStation is the highest selling platform and people actually buy games so it’s easy for Sony to do these deals.
As for Forspoken; racism and review media with no eye for a good quality game are the ones that hurt the game from being successful. Actual gamers speak highly of the game and it’s gameplay systems.
It’s a really good game. Underserved of all the attack it got.

You really think that was the problem? The game had a target from the first official name reveal lol. I do agree with you about the engine tho. Makes it even more puzzling why this was never switched over the Unreal.
Either way it's a definite solid 7.5 outta 10 game and the DLC was pretty good.
Good lord, that's like saying Nintendo's going to put Zelda game on Xbox because of the strengthening relationship we have seen between the two based off of things like Xbox allowing Doom Slayer costume to appear in Smash.
