Nope. Its was announced and released for mobile. This is a port to consoles.

Looked it up, they hinted it was coming to Switch back in August 2017. https://uk.ign.com/articles/2017/08/24/gamescom-2017-final-fantasy-xv-pocket-edition-has-a-chance-of-coming-to-switch

I didnt say they didn't. The game was designed for mobile first. Period. Saying it may come Switch does not rule out that it was already planned for the other 2 consoles. In that article they just happened to be specifically asked about Switch. There is no grounds for you to be butthurt. Ok?

Good Job Square...

"Direct was delayed so launch for Switch is also delayed." - I can't believe that's the reason, it's silly.

Not at all, it's totally logical, Nintendo do those things all the time, show some game in Direct and say "available right after Direct", but because delay they delay availability of game also, same thing is expected for Splatoon 2 DLC, so they delayed availability of some other things from Direct from eShop also.

Those are first party titles, Square aren't going to delay a game because of a Nintendo Direct. Especially not when it means it releases on other consoles first, what kind of PR move is that?

Similar to the DQ11 situation. Maybe the Switch is not Hugely Popular for SE.

You dong get it, it didn't Square Enix delayed launch of game on Switch, Nintendo did, they didnt updated eShop with new available releases from Direct becuase Direct was delayed.

Yeah... no. That's not what happened. A platform holder does not just delay a third party publisher's game without their permission, that would make them assholes.

I don't believe the direct had anything to do with the Switch version not being released now.

Of Course they can delay game, espacily when there is an unexpected problem, delay of Direct made plenty changed plans for Nintendo, SE cant do nothing.

Why do you think there is not release date for Switch verision of game and its certain at this time that game would be in delayed Direct!?

You are totally uninformed. You do know that the platform holders are responsible for updating their respective shops correct? Why would Nintendo be looked as assholes for being considerate of potential lives lost? Im positive SE takes no offense. You are sounding like a whinny insensitive brat right now. When Japan has major natural disasters they always delay business.
