Final Fantasy XV PC could take more than one year
Final Fantasy XV is among the most anticipated games for the holiday of 2016. The game will be released worldwide on November 29, for Xbox One and PS4. How about Final Fantasy XV PC version? It definitely could, but PC gamers will have to wait.
Final Fantasy XV PC: It could take more than one year
“Is Final Fantasy XV coming to PC?” This may be one of the most asked question regarding this game from Square Enix. The developer has always left it as vague as “Maybe!”. However, there are always speculations about this. Back in February, some piece of code from the Final Fantasy XV Uncovered website was found, raising the issue of a PC port. Recently, in an interview with Vida Extra, he game’s director Hajime Tabata has shed some light on the matter.
In that interview, Tabata said that if Square is to make a Final Fantasy XV PC version, they would make a bit of changes compared to what the game offers on console. He emphasized that doing so would take more than a year. It is because Square have to adapt the game to the engine, which is certainly hard work, and go on from there.
This takes us back to an April interview, when director Tabata was also asked about Final Fantasy XV PC port. He stated that he had in his mind a “more technically developed” version of the game for PC, including extra contents and features that consoles do not have. Tabata stated that it would be way better in terms of quality and tech. However, the problem would be Square having to start from scratch, first by deciding what technology to implement.
Final Fantasy XV PC: Unlikely for now, but always a possibility
Reading what director Tabata said, we can see that at least Square is giving serious consideration to the possibility of Final Fantasy XV PC version. However, all we can do is wait. Hopefully, PC gamers will be able to get access to this anticipated game in the future.
