Acccording to info from vgleaks  FFXV is being developed exclusively for the PS4 with sony's help.

Excerpt from article

Final Fantasy XV will be exclusive on PS4

Square-Enix has had problems in the current gen, I suspect that the company couldnt adapt Final Fantasy and other IPs to the HD era. Moreover, the first version of FF14 was a downfall, this game forced to stop the development of other games to focus in the rebuild of FF14. Really its like a new game.

Square-Enix announced Final Fantasy Versus XIII years ago and the game was lost in the limbo. Square decided to halt Versus PS3 development two years ago, but the RPG wasnt cancelled, why? Two years ago, Square-Enix moved the game to PS4 and Sony got in the project.

Actually Sony is co-developing the game with Square-Enix, therefore, this game will be exclusive on PS4. Square renamed Versus to FF15 in the middle of this process. Sonys studios are helping SE with FF15 assets among other tasks.

We hinted this PS4 exclusive one month ago, but we couldnt speak freely about this topic. Now, its all that we can say.


This is just awesome.

Enjoy. I hope this is not old news.

It'll move PS4's if true. FF still has weight despite how people felt about 13.

Timed Exclusive. Square likes money so don't think you'll see only one version of FFX.

Not a FF fan either, and not coolbeans. 

Exclusives need to die. We need games to be played by as many people as possible. Would love to have a generaiotn where PC and PS4 gamers cna enjoy Halo 5 and Xbox and Ps4 gamers can enjoy Rome Total War, etc, etc.

Games should be playable accross whatever platform we choose to play them in.

If Sony are putting money and development help in the project, you won't be seeing it on any other platforms in this generation unless it gets ported to the PS Vita down the line

Sure, but Sony helping them develop the game takes financial and development strain off of them. It's a trade off.

Why would they abandon the box platform? As far as I know the last FF sold decent on MS's system.
Makes no sense unless Sony whined so hard for loosing one of it's most popular exclusives.

If I remember correctly FF XIII sold over 4 million on PS3 and around 1.5 million? on 360. SE isn't missing much especially if they get Sony's backing. SE said they were overwhelmed by 7th generation development so, this is a good situation for them. They're going with the platform the majority of fans would buy their games on anyway.

I think it was more than that... but still even if your numbers are true, wouldn't it be better to sell 5.5m in total instead of just 4m? Do not say that the porting costs are way too high to justify the potential loss of 1.5m copies.

Well maybe for one, multiplatform development was said to hold the game back last time around. For two, I don't think some of these developers are expecting Microsoft to have the same kind of userbase next gen to even make it worthwhile.

If this rumor is true and Sony are helping SE, no, it wouldn't be better as it helps them financially as well as with development. Namco made Tales Of Vesperia a timed exclusive for 360 because Microsoft paid fot some of the development therefore taking off the financial strain of developing the game. Namco had a timed exclusivity contract with Microsoft though. I doubt Sony would help SE for a timed exclusive. Not to mention FF Versus XIII was still a PS3 exclusive as it was last known.

Last I checked this FFvsXIII (now FFXV) has always been a PS3 exclusive, just because it was delayed till the PS4 doesn't make that ownage.

FF is been going down. Ever since X-2, the series has sold less and less. XII sold less than X-2, XI just barely out did XII because of the 360 version, XIII did less than twelve even with the fastest momentum of a FF title, Xiii-2 cut XIII's sales in half and pretty much flopped on both consoles to the point they had to do early price drops. HALF THE customization options you see balnks in the menu for Xiii-2 are dlc, that also hurt it.

Yeah. I tend to agree. I really enjoyed FFX. Skipped a few, and picked up FFXIII. Found it disappointing. But, hey, let's see what they do with XIV.

It also sold over 2 million in Japan where it was sold exclusively on the PS3.

Excluding those; in the rest of the world it was 2-2.5 million on the PS3, and 1.5-2 million on the 360. That's not that big of a difference considering the exclusivity of the main franchise on Playstation platforms for the prior 13 years to its release.

Square won't abandon the Xbox unless there is enough involvement from Sony.

Even though there is massive sarcasm in the title of this thread, this could be cool.  If I get the game I'm getting it for PC of course though.

Still not exclusive though.

Edit: Oops, sorry. I read XIV for some reason.

I don't think a loss like this hurts Microsoft. For one I doubt Microsoft release the new system in Japan and if they do they are just throwing money away. And 360 gamers are probably not into JRPG's like PS3 gamers. It is a name and a good pick-up for Sony, but for average 360 gamers, it will not effect them in any way.
