Yeah I won’t lie as much as i would love to play the game on Xbox, i have given up that it’ll come out. But as you said, even if we do get part 1…how long will we have to wait for part 2 to come out - we could be looking at another 4 years or so!
Unless this long wait for part 1 was because Sony was about to make it fully PS only and then Phil swooped in and negotiated a deal with them or SE. In that case the wait for part 2 could be much shorter.
But I’m completely talking hypothecially here, I personally don’t believe it at all. I saw people on Twitter saying that nothing is certain, or official and that’s it’s only a rumor about Sony locking it up but let’s just say if not in June, then never.
Ha, I just woke up. I believe Day 1 is games that are already out, so I decided not to wake up for the start.
I mean it started at 6:30 AM for me lol
Jason Atsugiri is the host that brings all the energy but he’s not here till tomorrow
It’d be nice if Needy Streamer Overload came to consoles. It was revealed at a previous Indie Live Expo and ended up being a hit
Fans of Doki Doki Literature Club would love it
People on Twitter really just making rumors up now, lmao. Some nobody : rumor: Wolfenstein 3 to be announced for Xbox Series and PC at the Xbox and Bethesda show.
Silly af.
And the fun thing the people will be dissappointed if it is not announced
TRUE
Too good!
Aw, well it is coming to a console… The Switch. I love my Switch physicals so I might get it…
and it’s actually at 450,000 now, jeez. The last article I posted said 100k
This can’t be real
Steam

Japanese posters are very concerned about FF16 launching exclusively to PS5. This is probably a fake rumor thread but I felt it was worth posting.
Rough Google Translation
Square Enix is desperately looking for a loophole in the PS5 exclusivity agreement to save FF16 from bombing.
At this rate, it is certain that FF16 will be the worst selling numbered title to date. They are trying to back out of the deal with Sony, even if they have to pay a penalty to avoid ending the series.
Does anyone else think FF16 will add a Day 1 PC version or Day 1 PS4 version by launch? I feel like adding a PS4 version would be admission that software cannot survive on PS5 exclusivity which I think would be a bad image for Sony.
Already proven that themselves by making Horizon, GT, and GoWR cross-gen anyway. Square making FF16 cross-gen wouldn’t make a difference or bad image for Sony because it wouldn’t be Sony’s decision anyway.
I am surprised that Square Enix is concerned about the game They got paid for Sony, I would rather believe that they are crying because they think that they should have asked for more
It’s purely exclusive on PS5 right? This might be bad.
It’s just a “rumor” thread, nothing official. It’s a growing sentiment that this game won’t do too hot as a PS5 exclusive though, extremely so if it actually does come out this year.
That’s right, PS5 and nothing else.
I won’t be surprised if it flops. Even FF7 sold around 5m after a couple of years on 100m userbase. I can’t see FF16 making more, because FF7 was a highly anticipated remake of the legendary game.
Yeah, it is full PS5 exclusive with 1 year for PC release.
I think the deal was made under the assumption that PS5 will sell a lot, but COVID and shortages, Microsoft going all in affected a lot. I don’t believe that Square Enix is particularly happy, but at the same time they released a broken FF7R port on EGS so…
The deal overall might not be bad short-term. Square got a cheque already. Will benefit from the sales as well. Sony got what they wanted which is exclusivity. But it could undermine and jeopardize the value and growth potential of FF, which is already in a decline.
Well, I think nothing undermines FF on PC than a broken FF7R port with EGS exclusivity
I think the deal was either done in pre-COVID era (like with FF7R) or nobody expected the shortages (Microsoft decision to go with Series S helped a lot). Now with Microsoft going all in, investing in cloud and other stuff, I would not be surprised if Square Enix would be interested in working with Microsoft to grow FF. Because Sony is certainly not a partner with whom FF can grow at all.
It will further hurt the value when they do bring it to PC and it’s EGS exclusive again
