Final Fantasy 16’s Xbox Release Announcement is Imminent, It’s Claimed

An insider has claimed that Final Fantasy 16’s Xbox release announcement will arrive soon. The game’s release seemingly is planned for the “first half of 2025.” The leaker also revealed details about Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth. 

Spotted by IdleSlothVGT on X, NateTheHate recently spoke about Final Fantasy 16’s release plans for Xbox on ResetEra. According to Nate, the announcement should come shortly, but “not in the near future” if the developers aren’t implementing any “late changes”. Also, Final Fantasy 16 is scheduled to release for Xbox in the first half of 2025, “spring basically”. 

Nate also spoke about Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth’s release plans on Xbox. The first instalment from Square Enix’s Remake Project is scheduled to arrive for Xbox “later this year,” and Rebirth is planned for 2026. Nate is unsure about the time but speculates that Final Fantasy Remake, Rebirth and FFXVI for Xbox “will be announced at the same time for maximum impact”. 

NateTheHate also mentioned Final Fantasy’s plans for Nintendo’s highly anticipated console, the Switch 2. It seems that the developers have decided to prioritise Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth for the Switch 2 over Final Fantasy 16. Regardless, it is exciting to see Final Fantasy embrace a multi-platform future for the franchise. 

In other news, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth broke the franchise’s single-player record on Steam. Also, the third part of the Remake Project will be released on a ‘wide range of platforms’.

It doesn't make any sense. Publishers are trying to find ways to save money or widen their profit margin and they're gonna spend the money to port to Xbox? Did they not get the memo that Xbox is going third-party? They're pulling a SEGA? That means everything available on Xbox will be available on PlayStation and Switch but not the other way around, unless Xbox figures a way to get Steam and Epic Games launcher to run on their upcoming console which would be a full-on PC pretty much and then one could play PlayStation's biggest releases.

There's no point in releasing software for Xbox's console at that point other than a very small pool of loyalists, the bulk will move on to PlayStation to play all their games with their friends and a much less expensive service where they'll own the software they buy. Not to mention the gripes and complaints of how difficult porting to the Xbox Series S, is somehow where the PS4 can be ported to without any problem, but Series S isn't very fun and worth skipping altogether while they take the time and spend the money to figure it out.

Where's logic in all of this? People just react and make stupid decisions after they've just complained their profits aren't what they once were. They have a bored comprised of idiots that can't think that just have a bunch of money to invest and want to feel important I guess. Tell me how this makes sense? Once Indiana Jones, Gears, and Halo see PlayStation shores, it's over. It's Sonic on Nintendo, except Nintendo is the only one that didn't bow out in cowardess and lose confidence in their own hardware porting to the PC, again, a board comprised of people that can't think. The industry is just falling apart. I'm seeing another crash coming
