Since Hajime Tabata – Director of Final Fantasy XV (FFXV) has re-confirmed that the Final Fantasy XV pre-beta is completed, Team Amanz.net quickly addressed the current hot-of-the-stove rumour about FFXV getting a PC port. In his own words: “Not at all”.
Word on the grapevine had been insistent that FFXV would get a PC port since the game is, essentially, made on the PC. This unconfirmed and unsubstantiated piece of information came about when Tabata confirmed on Twitter that the game has passed its pre-beta phase.
Tabata had this to say when he had been prompted with the announcement: “Really?! Where did you hear this? If anything, it is a misunderstanding. There will be no PC port. We never planned for it. The game is originally developed on the PC first and what we said was how the pre-beta works very smoothly on the PC and now optimisations are being made (just like any beta testing would be like) for the consoles. Please do not misunderstand.”
“IF a PROPER PC version is to be made, then many changes have to be made and a lot of things have to be reconsidered before such a move can be made.”"
So yeah, no PC version. Possibility is still there but it's probably going to be in 5 or so years after. LOL. |
Do you really think its going to take them 5 years to optimise the game for PC?. More like 1 year after the console versions would be just about right to release a DX12 version of the game to try get people to double dip just like with GTA5.
What was the last Final Fantasy game that took SE 5 years to release on PC after its console version?. thats the question you should be asking yourself  .

The game is being developed with the Luminous engine which is still in development with FFXV. They seem to be focusing on making it work perfectly on a console for now as with the game. With how Tabata sounded in his answers to the possibility of a PC version, I'm thinking it's no where near a priority to them to have it on the PC. So I wouldn't bet on a short wait until the PC version or wait at all for it.
It's the same with FF13. The PC release of the first game was, like the other user said 4 or so years after the initial release. The succeeding games had a shorter wait as they have already developed and learned on how to optimize the engine and the game for PC. But even when they released the first game for PC, it still had a lot of shortcomings and wasn't even near to being a great port.
