Reminder: it’s also coming to PC
It’s not every day that we hear specific time windows for platform-exclusive games, and that goes double for exclusivity periods that last two whole years. In a new Sony video meant to hype up forthcoming PS5 games, there’s a bit of fine print about Square Enix’s release plans forProject Athia.
(Skip ahead to the 0:33 mark to see theAthiafootage and “PlayStation 5 Console Exclusive” disclaimer.)
In the video, Sony and Square Enix describeProject Athiaas being “in development for PS5” and “also available on PC,”as previously known. However, the exclusivity asterisk also mentions that the game won’t be “available on other consoles untilat least 24 monthsafter [the initial] release date.”
It’s good to know what kind of timeline we’re working with for planning purposes, but jeez. That’s a long time. And something tells me these deals are only going to get more aggressive in the next few years.
Side-note: if you’re struggling with the wait to playFinal Fantasy VII Remakeon PC or Xbox, last we heard, it will remain a “timed exclusive” on PS4 until at least June 07, 2025.
