Final Fantasy 16 PC Version Will Arrive Later Than Expected
By Alleef Ashaari|March 1, 2023|1 Comment
The PS5 version of Final Fantasy 16 will launch on 22 June 2023, but what about the PC version of the long-awaited JRPG? Well, it looks like players without a PS5 will have to wait a while before being able to play the game, as Final Fantasy 16 producer Naoki Yoshida has confirmed that it will not release six months after the PS5 release date.
Speaking with PlayStation Blog Japan, he said:
“I’ve caused a bit of a stir with my remarks the other day, but I’d like to touch on the PC version.
First of all, it is true that Final Fantasy 16 is a six-month limited-time exclusive on the PS5 platform. However, it is a completely different story that the PC version will be released in half a year. I will make it clear, but the PC version will not come out in half a year.
This is because we spent a lot of time and money optimising the PS5 platform to deliver the best gaming experience. Of course, I would like to release a PC version at some point so that everyone can play as many games as possible. However, even if we start optimising the PC version after the PS5 version comes out, we won’t be able to optimise it in half a year, so it won’t come out in a short span of half a year. I would like to release it eventually, and I think I will, but I am not at the stage where I can say when.”
First of all, I would be happy if you could play the PS5 version, which I made with the thought of being the best game in the world. If the PC version comes out in half a year, I can quit the company (laughs). Please don’t say, ‘I won’t buy the PS5 version because the PC version will be released in half a year’.”
If the PC version of Final Fantasy VII Remake was any indication, it will likely take at least one full year before Final Fantasy 16 launches on PC. Realistically, that’s the earliest possible timeframe.
