UPDATE 21.31pm: The Washington Post reporter responsible for the story claiming Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy had been confirmed as a PlayStation console exclusive by Sony has partially retracted the statement.
Originally, the report claimed, “Securing the Final Fantasy 7 trilogy as a console exclusive is a feather in the PlayStation cap”, but, in a note on social media, Washington Post games reporter Gene Park offered a clarification, writing, “It was a mistake on my part to write the sentence like that.” Park now says, “The entire FF7 trilogy is NOT yet confirmed to be Sony exclusive. The article has been amended to only mention Remake and Rebirth.”
Of course, with Remake and Rebirth still being described as PlayStation console exclusives in the Washington Post report (an assertion you’d assume has now been very thoroughly run by Sony and Square), it would be unusual if the third entry in the series proved to be an outlier – but for now, consider the exclusivity status of part three still unconfirmed.
