Asked if future Final Fantasy games may see a day-one release, Takai says “I think it’s possible – probably even likely,” before adding, “That said, the team in charge of each project gets to decide its own policy, so this is just my personal opinion.”

While Takai’s thoughts are his, they align with what Square Enix has said throughout various financial briefings throughout the year. At the company’s financial results for the last fiscal year, the developer spoke of a “shift from quantity to quality” as it “aggressively pursues a multiplatform strategy.”

    This is definitely what SE wants, but that’s going to depend on how much Sony is willing to pay for 1 year of exclusivity in the future.

      At least SE want more money and didn’t get enough the last years. So either Sony is paying more or they go multiplattform. Japan is maybe for sure a market SE doesn’t want to lose. And the ps5 is decent there, but nothing compared to switch and the pc is maybe about as big as ps5 or even biger in japan.
