Final Fantasy XVI specifically struck PlayStation 5 last June. However, Square Enix had actually currently exposed a computer variation of the activity game remained in growth. When I spoke with manufacturer Naoki Yoshida regarding it in Square Enix’s Tokyo, Japan, workplaces for Game Informer’s FFXVI cover story in 2014, he claimed players shouldn’t expect the PC version anytime soon.
With FFXVI’s initial DLC, Echoes of the Fallen, already out, and its second DLC, The Rising Tide, due out this spring, I spoke with Yoshida once again regarding the computer variation. I likewise spoke with him and DLC supervisor Takeo Kujiraoka regarding The Rising Tide and what gamers can anticipate, and you can check out Game Informer’s exclusive preview here.
While Yoshida is not able to share when the computer variation of FFXVI will certainly be launched, he states the group remains in the last phases of optimization.
“In terms of where we are in development currently, we’re trying to figure out the final stages of optimization right now,” Yoshida informs me via a translator. “When we can release the PC version might be dependent on that – the system requirements and specifications for PC that players will need, so we’re trying to figure that out. Naturally, [the PC specifications] are looking to be somewhat high.”
He states gamers can feel confident, though, that growth on the computer variation of FFXVI is going efficiently, however, “In terms of when it’s going to come out or when we can announce it, I’d like to ask for more time on that.”
Yoshida informs me prior to FFXVI launches on computer, the group will certainly do its finest to introduce the very best specs and demands in advance so gamers can establish if the game will certainly work on their Computers.
“And to do that, we’re looking to release a demo for the PC version as well,” he includes. “Again, we can’t really talk about too much in terms of details of when it’s going to come out – I think in a little bit more time we’ll be in a better place to announce things. But one thing’s for sure: It won’t be too distant in the future; it won’t be a year, it won’t be two years, it will probably be shorter than that, so stay tuned.”
