Oct 01, 2024 10:59 AM

Square Enix has provided an optimistic update regarding the potential Xbox release of Final Fantasy 16, a highly acclaimed RPG that originally launched as a PS5 exclusive. Producer Naoki ‘Yoshi-P’ Yoshida expressed that the company aims to bring the title to Xbox, although a specific release date remains undetermined. Yoshida reassured fans, emphasizing that there is hope for an eventual port, especially following the game's successful PC release. This news comes on the heels of Square Enix's disappointment over the commercial performance of both Final Fantasy 16 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, prompting a reevaluation of its business strategies.

Will Final Fantasy 16 be released on Xbox?

Yes, Square Enix has confirmed that it intends to release Final Fantasy 16 on Xbox at some point, but the exact timeline is still uncertain.

Final Fantasy 16 is a significant installment in the long-running franchise, known for its shift towards fast-paced, action-driven combat and a compelling narrative. Released in June 2023, it received praise for its engaging story, character development, and innovative features like Active Time Lore that enhances storytelling. The game's performance has prompted Square Enix to reconsider its future titles, making the potential Xbox release even more anticipated among fans eager for multi-platform access.
