Following years of anticipation and pleasure, Final Fantasy XVI is lastly out within the wild, being loved by hundreds of thousands of PlayStation followers. The crew behind the FFXVI – Square Enix’s Creative Business Unit 3 – have now claimed that not solely are they not completed with FFXVI, however they hope to work on extra Final Fantasy video games sooner or later.
As a part of a Final Fantasy XVI meet and greet occasion in Malaysia, Creative Business Unit 3 head Naoki Yoshida (Yoshi-P) spoke briefly on the crew’s future plans for Final Fantasy, revealing that they aren’t but completed with Final Fantasy XVI – hinting at the potential for a PC port or DLC someday down the road.
Perhaps much more fascinating is the truth that Yoshi-P urged that Creative Business Unit 3 (CBU3) might and would wish to work on future mainline Final Fantasy titles.
For the uninitiated, Square Enix’s inner builders are break up up into 4 core groups:
- Creative Business Unit 1
- Focuses on Final Fantasy single-player titles, spin-offs, SaGa and Kingdom Hearts
- Creative Business Unit 2
- Focuses on the Dragon Quest, Nier, Octopath Traveler and Bravely collection, in addition to arcade video games
- Creative Business Unit 3
- Focused totally on the Final Fantasy MMOs – up till FFXVI
- Creative Business Unit 4
- Focuses on the Mana collection, together with co-development and manufacturing of remasters and ports
Given the reception of Final Fantasy XVI and its early gross sales success, it will not be stunning to see Creative Business Unit 3 given full reign of all mainline Final Fantasy titles transferring ahead. We must wait and see.
