Final Fantasy 16 Was Planned for PS5 and PS4, but Last-Gen Version Would Have Taken Too Long
Producer Naoki Yoshida said a PS4 version of Final Fantasy XVI was in development, but it would have taken years to finish.
In an interview with Final Fantasy Union, Yoshida revealed, “What I can say is that during creating, we originally had a plan to release the game on PlayStation 4 perhaps. During development, we realized we needed at least one or two more years to get it to a level we were proud of.”
Final Fantasy XVI was planned to release on both PS4/PS5 simultaneously.
According to Yoshida, the PS4 version was ultimately cancelled as it would have taken a further 1-2 years worth of development to ensure its quality was high enough.

Yoshida previously claimed that Final Fantasy XVI began production on PS4, before being moved to PS5. Would you have waited for a PS4 port?
