TheFinal Fantasyseries is certainly enjoying a lot of success so far this year and looks to continue that momentum into 2021. Most recently, Square Enix got the fanbase excited with a first look at the highly anticipatedFinal Fantasy 16duringSony’s most recent PlayStation 5 event, but earlier this year it was the huge success ofFinal Fantasy 7 Remakethat really set things in motion. The PlayStation 4 exclusive went on to sell over 5 million units, though that number will likely rise even higher if the most recent leak is true.
The latest weekly ad for Target featuresFinal Fantasy 7inside of its video game section, which shouldn’t be too surprising. However, players who look a bit closer at the ad will notice that alongside the familiar blue PS4 box and $59.99 price point is that the game is also listed as being available on Xbox One. Currently, the title is exclusive to the PS4, so this listing could very well be a simple misprint.

However, this could also be Target accidentally posting the news ahead of an official announcement, something that fans are well aware of recently with PS5 pre-orders going live well before Sony intended them to. It seems that this ad could be more evidence that theFinal Fantasy 7 Remakeis indeed coming to Xbox One once the exclusivity deal runs its course.
Of course, there have been plenty of platform rumors swirling aroundFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, long before its April release date. The PC has been a hot topic in the community as more and more evidence has seemingly piled up indicating a possible launch in the future. Dataminers unearthed PC code inside of the demo that released earlier this year, hinting thatthe PS4 exclusive would eventually arrive on other platforms. While Square Enix remains tight lipped on the matter, most fans are expecting at least a year of exclusivity, meaning PC and Xbox One wouldn’t likely get their hands on it until April 2021 at the earliest.
IfFinal Fantasy 7 Remakeeventually arrives on other platforms, it’ll be interesting to see how that impacts the currentPlayStation 5 console exclusive,Final Fantasy 16. It’s possible that the game could simply be another one year timed exclusive, giving Xbox Series X fans hope that it’ll eventually come to their platform of choice.
Final Fantasy 7 Remakeis available exclusively for PlayStation 4.
