Indeed, this is another actor in the video game industry that we are surprised will not appear in the next few days, with so many events such as the Summer Game Fest, the Future Game Show or, obviously, the Xbox Showcase. Square Enix has been in the news in recent weeks not only because of its good financial resultsand it seems that its strategy of opening up to more platforms may become even more evident very soon, particularly at the next Microsoft event.
It’s not hard to guess that they probably are, since one of their next big games, Visions of Mana, has always followed Xbox in its announcement, even with rumors of an appearance on Xbox Game Pass or Octopath Traveler 2, which just yesterday we gave him the opportunity to be at the event. But it seems he couldn’t be the only one to show up. Because according to an insider Midori, well known for his leaks in recent months, he assures that “There are plans for new information about some Square Enix titles at the Xbox Showcase.
Will we have news on Final Fantasy XVI being ported to Xbox?
At this point, as we said above, there’s plenty of reason to believe that it refers to those two titles in particular, because we’re surprised that nothing from Kingdom Hearts IV has appeared, but there’s always hope that behind those words hides the long-awaited announcement of the Xbox version of Final Fantasy XVI. The game, which met with harsh critical acclaim but moderate sales success despite meeting its goals, may be fully opening up to the green platform after a temporary exclusivity with PlayStation.
It would certainly be a coup for Xbox in this industry that is moving towards multi-platform. Microsoft has already said that the future should be more open and that locking down the experience to one hardware was a mistake. It made it easier for us today It’s okay for PS and Xbox players to play Fortnite or Call of Duty together as a daily thing..
