If you’re hoping Square is going to bring Final Fantasy XIV over to Xbox, keep on hoping. Make wishes, even. Slay a unicorn. Whatever it takes, because negotiations are ongoing, and every bit counts.
That’s according to Square’s Naoki Yoshida, who told RPG Site that the company is “continuing our talks” with Microsoft, but in the meantime, they’re totally focussed on the PS3 version of the game.
“The one thing to regain that damaged player trust is to keep those promises, and one of the promises was to release a PlayStation 3 version – we made that promise long, long ago, and we still haven’t kept it,” he said.
“We made that promise not only to the players, but to Sony as well. The first thing that we need to do, to regain that trust, is to fulfill those promises of bringing the PS3 version. Our priority right now is getting that version finished.”
“Of course, because the game is developed on the PC, moving it to the Xbox 360 platform wouldn’t be that difficult, but as we said before, the thing we have to get done first is getting that PS3 version done. Once that’s done, we can take the next step from there.”
Which means Xbox gamers have a bit of a wait ahead of them, with the PS3 launch scheduled for sometime in 2013.
