After months of speculation and Square-Enix refusing to confirm anything, at E3 it was finally confirmed that Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will be coming to the Playstation 4.
For all of you PS3 owners: do not cancel your FFXIV preorders. The PS4 version will not be released until sometime in 2014. With A Realm Reborn being released for the PC and PS3 on August 27, 2013, that’s a long way to wait. And Yoshi-P has assured fans that any character data on the PS3 version will be freely transferable to the PS4 version, once it’s released. So players should go ahead and buy the PS3 version of FFXIV when it’s released, if that is what they want to do.
It’s also not clear yet exactly what benefits the PS4 version might have. Presumably better graphics, but there’s currently no word on a PS4 Collector’s Edition or any other perks. But considering Sony’s other explosive announcements that seem to make the PS4 the console to beat for the next generation, an updated FFXIV only makes the console that much more attractive.
