FFXIV Mobile: Speculation Mounts on Possible Development

Rumors are swirling that the popular MMORPG, FFXIV, might be making its way to mobile devices. A gaming industry insider, Kurakasis, alleges that Tencent Games and Square Enix are collaborating on a mobile port.

Square Enix's Mobile History: A Mixed Bag

This isn't Square Enix's first foray into mobile Final Fantasy titles. However, past attempts have yielded mixed results. While Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis received a lukewarm reception, Dissidia Final Fantasy: Opera Omnia was ultimately shut down. Therefore, adapting the complex FFXIV to mobile presents a significant challenge.

Unverified, But Not Entirely Baseless

It's crucial to remember that this information is unconfirmed. Square Enix hasn't officially commented. However, past collaborations between Square Enix and Tencent hint at the possibility. In 2018, both companies discussed potential partnerships, and in 2021, then-president Yosuke Matsuda mentioned ongoing discussions about joint projects.

The Kurakasis leak provides no timeframe, leaving the project's status uncertain. A formal announcement remains pending.

The Mobile Adaptation Challenge

The success of this venture hinges on Square Enix's ability to faithfully translate FFXIV's intricate mechanics onto a mobile platform without compromising the game's depth. A simplified, inferior version could disappoint dedicated fans.
