Don't forget Trials of Mana remake earlier this year skipping Xbox as well. Square JP studio support for Xbox is among the worst of the major JP publishers this gen moving into next. We got FF Type 0 HD, FFXV, KH3, KH Collection, KH Melody of Memory, Romancing SaGa 2 and 3, a late Nier Automata port, a late World of FF port, late FF10 and FF12 HD remasters, and a late DQ11 port so far this gen, with Nier remake, Balan Wonderworld, and FF14 incoming next year (guessing on FF14, but I see no reason why it wouldn't release next year unless Square decide to be even bigger dicks and straight up cancel the port they already announced). For next-gen, we'll probably get late ports of FF7R, FF16, and Project Athia, who knows what else. Koei Tecmo support is also quite poor this gen, from them all we've gotten this gen is DoA 5 LR, DoA 6, Dynasty Warriors 9, Warriors Orochi 3 & 4, Arslan, Bladestorm, One Piece Pirate Warriors 4, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 13, and Attack on Titan 1 & 2. Nioh 1 and 2 still haven't come to Xbox in spite of them teasing Nioh on Xbox nearly 2 years ago. Gust hasn't put a single game on Xbox all gen, neither Atelier nor Fairy Tail, even though they teased Fairy Tail for Xbox more than a year ago. Square Enix and Koei Tecmo seem to hate us Xbox gamers for whatever reason; Sega, Namco Bandai, Capcom, and Konami give Xbox far better support. Phil really needs to win over Square and Tecmo somehow. |
Square has been shit the entire gen in terms of Xbox support. I wouldn't expect it to become any better this gen. Because it seems that it simply is not financially viable for them to support Xbox at this point. Otherwise, they would have already changed their mind. And btw, about FF14. Jez Corden recently hinted that it's not coming after all, so I wouldn't expect it to come to Xbox. (Jez is reliable in my opinion, don't remember when he was wrong about MS stuff, but still it's just his guess). I would say that if Xbox port is not announced on the stream dedicated to game's next big update which is coming either this week or the next one, then Jez is probably right and it is not coming.
