Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthwill be remembered as not only one of 2024s best games, but also as one of the bestFinal Fantasygames ever, period- and yet, much to the disappointment of Square Enix, the action RPG has failed to match its critical acclaim with commercial success. Square Enix has previously said thatRebirthsold below the companys expectations, and that, combined with the underperformance ofFinal Fantasy 16,has prompted to multiple proclamations by the publisher that going forward, its titles are no longer going to be exclusive to any one platform.Speaking with IGN Brazil,Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthproducer Yoshinori Kitase reiterated the same. According to Kitase, though Square Enix is satisfied with the remakes sales, the company has also arrived at the conclusion that its games can no longer be exclusive to any one platform if they are to be as profitable as it needs them to be.Although were confident and satisfied that were reaching a certain level of sales, its clear that, with the modernity of games, we cant be exclusive to a single platform, he said. I think we need to offer the game to as many players as possible.Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthis, of course, set to launch for PC on January 23, withFinal Fantasy 16already having released for the platform in September. How long itll be before both titles (andFinal Fantasy 7 Remake) finally make their way over to Xbox is, of course, the big question now, though presumably, the next bigFinal Fantasygame isnt going to be a PlayStation exclusive.
