I et interview med Game Informer, har Final Fantasy XVI-producer Naoki Yoshida sagt, at PC-versionen af Final Fantasy XVI er i sin afsluttende fase og at teamet er godt i gang med at optimere spillet. Han advarer dog også om, at det ser ud til at spillet vil kræve en ganske kraftig PC, men at de præcise specs vil blive annonceret senere.
In terms of where we are in development currently, we're trying to figure out the final stages of optimization right now. When we can release the PC version might be dependent on that - the system requirements and specifications for PC that players will need, so we're trying to figure that out. Naturally, the PC specifications are looking to be somewhat high.
Udviklingen af PC-versionen skulle angiveligt være startet i september 2023 og der er endnu ingen udgivelsesdato på denne udgave. Yoshida siger, at en demo vil lande inden udgivelsen, og det lyder som om, at den kunne komme i løbet af 2024.
We're looking to release a demo for the PC version as well. Again, we can't really talk about too much in terms of details of when it's going to come out - I think in a little bit more time we'll be in a better place to announce things. But one thing's for sure: It won't be too distant in the future; it won't be a year, it won't be two years, it will probably be shorter than that, so stay tuned.
Final Fantasy XVI er ude nu på PlayStation 5.
