You're mistaken if you think this means simultaneous PC release. Spencer was travelling around during TGS offering wads of money to whoever wanted to take it, this just means FF will prolly end up on Xbox for a non insignificant lump sum while PC will be left to boost the game's sale tail like with XV.

I think if they want to sell lots of copies, they should make a good FF. XIII was trash, XV was meh, XVI was a step in the right direction but the combat is utter trash and the remakes pushed too far. They divided the remake into a trilogy to jam their hands deep into the fans' pockets and are being punished for it. I highly doubt the majority of FF fans is not already on PlayStation. Shit, I've bought and played every single FF since FFI and the last three really made the series sour on me. I'm replaying FFXII because VI, despite having a really interesting story and setting, seems to have been designed for Americans. Action and dumbed down mechanics, no strategy, no maths, no materia or spell combo, no massive skill trees... Make FF good for people with above room temp IQ again and watch the sales soar.

The release is Jan 23. I was being facetious.

Wasn't exactly obvious without /s

The game originated on PS5. And I said:

I bought the pre order for the Steam version

Don't think the /s was necessary...
