Xbox China Leaks Lead to Final Fantasy 7 Xbox Port Rumours

The Final Fantasy 7 Remake was released initially as a PlayStation exclusive, but this was only to be for a limited time. The PlayStation timed exclusive for Final Fantasy 7 Remake is thought to have lasted at least six months from debut, with the exclusivity presumably having been reset once Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade released PS5. Given that Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade was launched on June 10, it’s reasonable to assume that the game will be released on additional systems in December.

At the time of writing, nothing formal has been revealed, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake is still exclusively confirmed for PlayStation systems. Xbox China, on the other hand, recently sent out a tweet that, although not an exact translation, was essentially a poll inviting fans to choose from a range of “Xbox” characters. The vote centred on ladies from various Xbox titles, and interestingly, Tifa Lockhart was featured in the list, despite Final Fantasy 7 Remake only being available on PlayStation thus far. Maybe it was about other Final Fantasy titles on Xbox, but it just seems a bit strange considering that they’re not what Xbox is known for.

Apparently Xbox China posted an option of FF7 Remake in the thread then deleted tweet….it shows Xbox 20th anniversary so could they announce it at event next month? #Xbox

How Likely are we to See Ports of Final Fantasy 7 Remake?

Xbox China removed the poll and replaced it with a different one that did not include Tifa as an option. It’s feasible that the poll was intended to be a reference to the original Final Fantasy 7, which is available on Xbox, and that the tweet was removed to prevent misunderstanding. It’s also plausible however that the tweet effectively revealed the existence of a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Xbox port. While it hasn’t been officially confirmed, an FF7 Remake Xbox version could be on the way.

While there isn’t much evidence to support Final Fantasy 7 Remake coming to Xbox, the game’s PlayStation exclusivity won’t remain forever, and it only makes sense for Square Enix to release it across all platforms. Even though there hasn’t been as many leaks regarding a prospective Final Fantasy 7 Remake for Xbox platforms, there have been some talks of a PC port.

Multiple leaks have suggested that a Final Fantasy 7 Remake PC port is in the works, and if Square Enix is willing and able to deliver the game to PC, an Xbox release shouldn’t be far behind. Hopefully we will have more official news soon, as I would love to be able to experience the Final Fantasy 7 Remake for myself.
