what is this? I gotta look into it. never heard of it
lol, I just watched the trailer. Looks super rough. Yeah, 2025 sounds about right!
PC seems around same time.
It's other consoles which have a 2 year wait.
Microsoft to buy Square Enix.
They arent getting Ninteno/SE exclusives like BD2 on day one.
So just multiplattform games ? Because these games for the most part are coming to PS4/PS5 as well.

I'd imagine if you're a fan of Japanese Square Enix games, you're going to need a PS5 or PC because I bet Sony paid a decent bit to keep all of them off Xbox.
PC is the same time, but it'll probably be that year regardless.

At least 24 months after release. The PlayStation Advantage -- costing whatever it takes to keep it on their platform by giving them the option to silently extend that date like they did with Destiny DLC
One of the things giving me pause on a Series X. I want to know I'd be able to play VIIR at some point. And then the next in the entry.
This exclusivity thing will always be tipped in the favour of the market leader, and that looks like it is going to continue to be Sony for a while.
Oo0o0o0 that's awhile.
Do we know how long FF16 will be exclusive for?
365 months
yea, and PS4/5. I'm kinda thinking of all those japanese games that just skip Xbox. SE much better about that
A lot longer than the usual 12 months exclusivity window huh.
Sure hope this doesn't set a new bar for the deals in the future for all the companies.

2 years might as well be forever. The game could absolutely be had for 9.99 new or less on PS5/PC long before the 24 months are up.
Anyone with any interest in playing it will already have done so.

FF7R Part One will undoubtedly have a next-gen PS5 exclusive timed release. They'll release the Xbox One version as scraps for everyone else.
2 years, ugh... if it was a launch title i could easily wait since i don't plan to buy a ps5 until 1 or 2 years... but here? i dunno, we'll see if it's a must have or not with the impressions
EDIT : wait i'm not sure i understand... is it 24 month only for other consoles or PC included?

Yeah, sometimes they are sometimes they arent - Trials of Mana was released on everything but Xbox, new TWEWY game for next summer also skipping Xbox plattforms. Its a bit weird...they might just be waiting for MS to come through with that GamePass money offer.
I don't remember Cerny's deep tech dive mentioning how they'd be able to have DOUBLE the timed exclusivity with the power of the SSD.
TBH after a year, nobody will care, if you notice all these timed exclusive ends up on XGP when they come to Xbox. It's a smart way for publishers to double-dip on the game. I wouldn't be shocked if FF7R is on XGP day 1
I think it's less that they're waiting on it and straight up that it's not worth it unless MS puts money in as well.
Agreed. These companies act like when they announce what would normally be a multi-platform game as an exclusive no one would notice, and when it does eventually gets announced for the other platforms it's like a nice surprise. Instead it's just the most boring possible kind of speculation that just leaves a sour taste in the mouth of everyone.
