| Sogreblute said: I think if Sony sees that Final Fantasy is no longer that console seller they may no longer look for exclusivity deals anymore. If FF7 Rebirth showed no signs of shifting hardware and sales are less than FF16, then FF17 could be a multiplat game. Sony will just take that money and put it towards another game that will actually sell a lot of hardware. |
Most likely yes.
I mean maybe they would keep it around for nostalgia/legacy sake, but these aren't cheap games either. At some point Sqaure-Enix is going to ask to be reimbursed for any potential lost sales if they want to keep doing exclusives, that could cost Sony a couple of hundred mill, probably not worth it for them either
FF7R and FF16 in particular not doing much for PS5 hardware sales in Japan is probably the last straw.
