Microsoft has reaffirmed its commitment to bring a multitude of Final Fantasy games to Xbox platforms, including Final Fantasy 10, 13, and more.
TrueAchievements received a statement from a Microsoft spokesperson that the company still plans to add a number of Final Fantasy games to Xbox platforms. "As we announced at X019, we are excited to bring the Final Fantasy franchise to gamers with Xbox Game Pass. We have done so throughout 2020 and will continue to do so in 2021 and beyond," the spokesperson said. "We look forward to announcing specific launch dates for more Final Fantasy titles in the future."
Fast forward 14 months, and only four games from the list have actually been added to Xbox platforms. Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, and 15 were all introduced to Xbox and PC through Xbox Game Pass over the course of 2020, but we're still left with no release date for 10, 10-2, 12, 13, 13-2, and Lightning Returns, despite an original release window of 2020 for all ten games.
However, Microsoft's statement still commits to bringing the remaining six games to PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. Despite the fact that we don't have a release window for any of the six games, it's still a relief to know that they're still being made available for Xbox and PC users at some point in the future. What's more, all Final Fantasy games will be a day one launch on Xbox Game Pass, so there'll be nothing additional to pay if you're already a member.
