Did you even read the OP?

I already covered in the first paragraph how I made this thread to show people that current-gen (PS4/One) will not revolve around FFXV trilogy like last-gen (PS3/360) did with the FFXIII trilogy. Also, if you read all the points I provided in the OP, you'll see it's obvious that Ito is secretly working on FFXVI for release this gen.


I just don't see the point in releasing two series at the same time. They already said they needed to make any main FF a trilogy to justify the costs of a AAA J-RPG.

I mean, what would happen, they would release FFXV, then XVI, then XV-2, etc ? Or try to go for yearly releases ?

They were already releasing two series at the same time on PS2 and PS3.

With PS2, they released FFXII (2006) and FFXII: Revenant Wings (2007) alongside FFVII: Advent Children (2005), Dirge of Cerberus: FFVII (2006), and Crisis Core: FFVII (2007).

With PS3, they released FFXIII (2009), FFXIII-2 (2011), and Lightning Returns: FFXIII (2013) alongside FFXIV (2010) and FFXIV: A Realm Reborn (2013).

Basically, they've done it before and they'll do it again. I can see FFXVI releasing sometime during the FFXV trilogy. Heck, FFXVI may even get a sequel released when the FFXV trilogy is over.

FFXVI will have a sequel, it will be trilogy. But where will the money come from ? Where will the staff come from ?

FFXIII and FXV were highly impacted by FXIV 2.0 development. I don't think you want that to happen again.
