It seems that Square Enix looks to expand "Final Fantasy XIV" reach outside of the PlayStation and PC platforms as the Japanese publisher told Finder there desire to have the MMORPG ported to the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One platforms.
Although an exciting take for Square Enix to have "Final Fantasy XIV" in the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One platforms it seems that Microsoft and Nintendo will have the final say in the idea.Game director and producer Naoki Yoshida stated that he wants to bring the game to as many people as possible, but he is not willing to concede some standards of quality which assure the game continues to operate as intended for its enormous community.
Yoshida added that the patch updates for "Final Fantasy XIV" are needed on a regular basis and those patches go live on every platform at the same time, without exception, to maintain parity and stability.
On top of that, Microsoft and Nintendo both have policies that could be getting in the way. One of the only reasons "Final Fantasy XIV" has not been seen in the Xbox One is because of a policy, which forbids late ports of games that do not contain exclusive features for the Xbox One version.
Nintendo, on the other hand, is notorious for taking its time to ensure that things are done according to its own standards, very rarely catering to the needs and demands of publishers when their needs and demands contradict Nintendo's standard procedures.
Still, Square Enix has seen enormous success on Microsoft and Nintendo platforms, and there is no doubt that gaming fans are craving "Final Fantasy XIV" on the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One.
