Final Fantasy Type-0 Coming To PC According to MSI

MSI has issued a press release about its presence at this year’s Computex, and revealed that Final Fantasy Type-0 will be coming to the PC (and will be showcased running on its new laptops). As the press release reads, Square Enix will work with MSI to have a global launch of their latest game Final Fantasy Type-0 at MSI’s COMPUTEX booth.

Final Fantasy Type-0 will be demonstrated on MSI GS60 Red version and GS70 Silver version. Both models are described as lightweight laptops with fancy color design and incredible gaming power.

According to the press release, Final Fantasy Type-0 brings an immersive world, memorable characters and the production value known of the series, together with high quality gameplay and storytelling truly worthy of the Final Fantasy name.

I'm guessing SE were planning to announce it at E3 and it got leaked?

Uhh, sure. I'm interested as long as it's better than their FFXIII ports.

Whatever happened to Lightning Returns PC anyway?

All I want from this port, over the console ones, is a toggle to turn off motion blur, a toggle to turn off motion blur, and maybe a toggle to turn off motion blur.

EDIT: Beat to it.

Computex is this week, so it doesn't sound like Square Enix was trying very hard to keep this under wraps until E3.

EDIT: beaten so hard

No. Computex starts tomorrow, which is where they're debuting it. I take it the announce will come officially today at some point (edit: they usually send out pressers at 9am EDT, so 11 mins). I've already hit up Square about this and am waiting for confirmation. :3

So we'll get some news soon, if it exist? Good.

This is Type-0, not Agito?

Because there was a press release last week that announced Agito for Windows 10, which apart from being the original title of the game, is a stripped down (mobile social app?) version of somesort.

That said I really enjoyed Type-0 HD on the PS4. Aside from the rather insane motion blur and some other bugs and glitches it's a really fun game and has a pretty wild story. I'd be interested in seeing if they further improve it on PC, I don't know if I'd double dip since it's still clearly a mobile game and it's incredibly grindy, but if they added content that pointed toward a Type-1 current gen release...

works for Gamestop (lol)
It's definitely referencing Type-0 HD

How much did the XIII games sell on PC anyway?

I'm shocked btw, I'd be even more shocked if they ported XV to PC after its console release. Totally shocked.

The only positive outcome of this is that the translation team rips out the english audio and injects it into psp version.

You answered yourself in your own post.

It isn't. Which means FF13-3 won't be ported, ever. Thankfully. Burned twice, won't get fooled again. Someone else can fall on Square-Enidos' sword for Type-0.

Sweet. Was considering playing the fan patch recently and was going to let E3 announcements decide if I should wait or not.

Not too much unfortunately which is why Lightning Returns might not come to Steam. Not anyone's fault really...S-E messed up the ports badly.

Does Hexadrive have any PC experience. The way this announcement happened so soon after console release tells that this was in development along with the consoles.

FFXIII LR used a different engine from XIII & XIII-2. That is why it is taking time. The game was dated for spring and Spring ends when June ends.

When is Computex btw? Maybe we'll get some idea as to when its going to be out.

No it doesn't...they all use Crystal Tools.

Damn - I was gonna get this for PS4....but meh.

I wont get FFType-0 on PC anytime soon.

So I guess I'll trip dip on it. ;p

Already played the PSP version and will get PS4 ver.

This was expected though - so I'm excited :)

A few hundred thousand of some last gen, not-super-well-recieved games being ported over years later? Pretty good if you ask me. Is that really a sign that there isn't a market for FFXV on PC?

Obviously we know the answer, but why do I get the feeling Square won't get it...

Played a bit of this and thought it was fun. Didn't get into it but I'll probably jump in for the right price.

You're talking to a company that thought 3.4 million copies of Tomb Raider was deemed a failure...

Nice I suppose, but no interest on playing on PC.
What would be interesting...is if it comes with the FFXV Duscae demo too, interested to see how that would be on PC.

I can see it being part of Square's conference.

Is Square going to be part of the PC gaming conference at all?

Yes. Though I imagine they'll probably just be showing this off on the Square side and most of it will be Eidos stuff.
