Phil san also changed various regulations at Xbox to make FFXIV a reality, to help us and make our job easier. This was the trigger for our extensive dialogue. But we both shared the idea that “Consoles are just a mean to an end, the most important is how the community grows and what the community wants”. “Enclosing the users” was still the base policy. Back when we first talked, Xbox’s Cross-Platform policy was still very restricted. Phil san visits Square Enix around every six months, and we mail each other too. I’ve been talking a lot with Phil san for about three years and a half. Game Watch asked Yoshida how these talks are doing now. Phil Spencer told Game Watch then “I spoke with Yoshida san and we’ll bring FFXIV to Xbox”. This was probably at the occasion of the X019, where multiple Final Fantasy games were announced for the Xbox Game Pass. The Game Watch journalist first mentioned how back in November 2019, they had the opportunity to meet with Phil Spencer. It looks like Final Fantasy XIV on Xbox One and Xbox Series X isn’t a pipe dream. Our Japanese peers at Game Watch recently published an interview with Final Fantasy XIV Producer Naoki Yoshida, where they most notably spoke about whether the MMO could come to Xbox consoles.
