Playstation 3 Release date?

Hello!

I wanted to ask, if anyone knows the official release date of FFXIV on ps3?

TBD

That's "to be determined". PS3 version has been indefinitely delayed.

No clue. Sorry ~.~;

Amazon does,
(Video Game - Dec 31, 2020) - PlayStation 3

Surprisingly there are a number of rumors going about stating 18th august and i have notice several online retailers now listing august as the release date.

Amazon.com puts its release down to dec 31st 2020 LOL

My guess is that you won't see a release date until people are paying to play ff14 on the PC.

And you're not going to see that until the game is at least bearable..

And with the rate of patching and how fast the game is improving... yeah... you won't see a ps3 launch.

no

Untill square says something on the mater its still on standby, Online retailers that have a date have it there so you will pre-order from them.

As things currently stand, I wouldn't count on a PS3 version being released at all. Check again in a couple months.

As things currently stand there is a much higher chance of it being released then being scrapped.

1) They are still developing it... if they scraped the project why are they still spending money on it

2) The Statement Wada made stated fixing this game was a focus that it would just take more time. (Source: SE online Statement may 13, 2011.. they actually said they will not focus more on the online market until the game is fixed)

3) Every time the devs mention ps3, they have said they have a team on it. (multiple different interviews)

4) Devs stated the game was just in optimization stages last December. Reason was given why it has not been released yet. (Final Interview with Tanaka)


With all this chances with it not be release is about as likely as GW2 never being released. Sure they say it is going to be released... but they refuse to give a date. Whether or not if it is successful is another question and depends on what the dev team does.

Have to remember over 60% of the old FFXI playerbase has not even been introduced to the game, and over 90% of the FF fan base as well.

Why would they not release it... the box sales alone would bring them in a huge chunk of change... They would lose money by not releasing it, even if it did fail.

Perhaps these threads could be stopped by a simple reply from a dev stating "We spoke to Yoshi P and rest assured the PS3 version is still being worked on with a targeted release for Q1 2013"

All you're gonna get outta them is that it's still in development. There is no release date because there is no release date for this game being good.

i cant wait we need more people on my server! plus i hope the ps3 comes out after i get most of my crafts to around r40. almost there though

It was a joke VD :P

Thanks for all the answers :D

Does anyone feel its a coincidence that they are aiming to have all the major changes done by the end of summer and now the PS3 version is rumored to come shortly after in august? I'm guessing the devs are getting pressure to release it this fall. I hope they learned their lesson with the last launch cause the only get one more.

Yoshida in letter XI actually said that pressure is mounting up in the scheduling front. What that means, who knows, But, if PS3 version was to be released anytime soon, you would see a push in marketing. Considering all changes planned, PS3 might be pushed for next year even. No rush, either way, if anyone knows what time they have on their hands is SE and there are plenty of other games coming out this year for PS3 that look excelent. Im not even worried about XIV(Which I log in to almost every day for about one to two hours ^^).

Most of the stuff they are doing and the improvements they are making are very PS3-centric
Who wouldn't want to tap into the 4.5 million people who bought FFXIII on PS3...
Sure, all of them wont get it... and all that get it wont stay and play....
but all they need is 1/9th of that to equal FFXI...
Maybe consoles MMO's are ready to go mainstream....
God knows there is no PS3 MMO competition (DCUO???)
The darn game engine we are using was developed for the PS3
The UI is completely controller friendly...
You can play the entire game keyboard and mouse free....
Large seamless zones to cut down on load times...
From business and creative standpoints, PS3 is just a good move...
Also, lets be honest... most people either keep their heads in the sand re: game reviews OR want to join in on the hate first hand so they'd buy the game just to see what all the complaining was about
Add to that the fact that Famitsu (Japan) wont review the game until PS3 release
So Let's say Famitsu givesthe game a 37 or higher out of 40 (You can say they wont, but that would mean you haven't done your research)...
Japan PS3 numbers will be bigger then worldwide PC numbers....

We are taking this into consideration

Final Fantasy XIV Nukem Forever (PS3)

February 32th, 2025

It comes out tmr.
