Wada On Multiplatform Final Fantasy Versus XIII [Update]

While a Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer ended with “for PlayStation 3 worldwide”, it may also be released on Xbox 360. At an investors Q&A reported by Impress Watch, someone asked if Final Fantasy Versus XIII would be better off as a multiplatform game.

“We’re examining it in-house right until the last minute before the formal announcement,” Yoichi Wada, Square Enix CEO replied.

Wada also assured attendees Final Fantasy XIV will be released in this year. With respect to the business model, it sounds like Final Fantasy XIV will use a subscription model instead of virtual item sales. Wada said plans have not been finalized, but “if I had to say, subscriptions.”

Update: Wada posted a reaction to the quote over Twitter. “Looks like the internet is excited. Versus on Xbox? What I said at the fiscal presentation was until an official announcement is made at publication time all points of all titles have not been settled.”
