Final Fantasy XIV has been on a wild ride over the last decade. Starting off as a train wreck that threatened Square Enix’s very existence before becoming one of its biggest revenue sources, the game has grown considerably throughout its existence. The MMORPG is about to get even bigger as fans predict that the fourth expansion pack could be announced at a fan event tonight.
There’s more than just new content to be considered for the game’s next update. With two new consoles out there, it’s time for its developers to talk shop about how they’ll be supported. A PlayStation 5-optimized version is a no-brainer, and with Microsoft’s new machine holding more power under the hood, it’s only natural for the game to finally make the jump. But it won’t. And, quite frankly, it shouldn’t.
The long road to stability

The PS5 and Xbox Series generation is just now…
