PlayStation’s State of Play returns this week with a Final Fantasy 16 showcase
The event will feature over 20 minutes of new gameplay
Sony Interactive Entertainment will hold a State of Play broadcast this week focused on Final Fantasy 16.
Viewable on Twitch and YouTube, it will take place on Thursday, April 13 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm GMT / 11pm CEST.
The showcase will include over 20 minutes of new gameplay footage from the upcoming title, which recently went gold ahead of its PS5 release on June 22.
Producer Naoki Yoshida recently said he’d like to see a PC version of the game released “eventually”.
“First of all, it is true that Final Fantasy XVI is a six-month limited time exclusive on the PS5 platform,” he told the Japanese PlayStation Blog (translated by Google). “However, it is a completely different story that the PC version will be released in half a year. I will make it clear, but the PC version will not come out in half a year.
“This is because we spent a lot of time and money optimizing the PS5 platform to deliver the best gaming experience. Of course, I would like to release a PC version at some point so that everyone can play as many games as possible.
“However, even if we start optimizing the PC version after the PS5 version comes out, we won’t be able to optimize it in half a year, so it won’t come out in a short span of half a year. I would like to release it eventually, and I think I will, but I am not at the stage where I can say when.”
