Evaluation: Remaining Fantasies
Square Enix has a reasonably robust displaying, then, for Tokyo Game Show this yr. However regardless of the big variety of Remaining Fantasy streams at this present, there's nonetheless a few obvious Remaining Fantasy-shaped holes, Remaining Fantasy 16 being one among them and Remaining Fantasy 7 Remake Half 2 being one other.
Properly, it’s maybe not an enormous shock that these video games do not seem like current at TGS this yr. It’s doubtless that Square Enix is attempting to give attention to its titles which might be anticipated to launch late this yr and early subsequent yr. Given Remaining Fantasy 16 and Remaining Fantasy 7 Half 2 each do not have launch dates but it feels protected to say they’re going to be a bit later than that.
It was solely earlier this year that Remaining Fantasy 16’s producer Naoki Yoshida expressed doubt concerning the sport making the Tokyo Game Show deadline, saying that the event crew would like to indicate off the sport nearer to its launch versus drip-feeding data to followers over a protracted time frame.
