Final Fantasy 7 Remake rumored for Xbox release

Jan 17, 2024 9:28 AM

Rumors are indicating that a potential release of Final Fantasy 7 Remake on Xbox consoles is under discussion. Initially launched as a PlayStation 4 exclusive in 2020, followed by a subsequent PC release, the game has yet to be available for Xbox gamers. According to Jez Corden from WindowsCentral, during the Xbox Two podcast, talks between Microsoft and Square Enix have been hinted at, albeit without a likely announcement soon due to focus on the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Fans keen on expanding their gaming experience to include this beloved remake on the Xbox platform might eventually have their wish granted.

Is Final Fantasy 7 Remake coming to Xbox?

While nothing is official yet, discussions between Microsoft and Square Enix have been reported, suggesting that Final Fantasy 7 Remake could potentially make its way to Xbox consoles in the future.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a reimagining of the classic 1997 JRPG, and it's the first installment in a planned trilogy. The original game is acclaimed for revolutionizing the genre with its engaging story, memorable characters, and groundbreaking use of 3D graphics and full-motion video. The remake expands on the original with updated graphics, a revamped combat system, and a deeper exploration of the game's world and characters.

The whispers around Final Fantasy 7 Remake possibly landing on Xbox have got my gamer senses tingling – it's about time Xbox peeps got to experience that reimagined Midgar magic. It just shows that even exclusivity has an expiration date, so never say never in the gaming world.

If this pans out, it'd be great news for Xbox fans who've been holding out hope for a slice of that FF7 Remake action. Square Enix crossing that console divide would definitely highlight their commitment to reaching a wider audience and showcasing their willingness to embrace platform diversity.
