Re: Final Fantasy 16 Is Exclusive to PS5 for Six Months, Sony Confirms

@nookie_egg people look at the deal as 3 so studios and several IP for $300 M, but an important element to the deal was that Embracer took on all outstanding debt from Square. This means that the company is running a very healthy budget right now. The acquisition would make more sense, seeing that so many of Square's upcoming games are PlayStation console exclusive. Though Final Fantasy is the biggest game on Square's docket, they do have other solid brands, and an amazing live action MMORPG in FF14.

Games like:
Kingdom hearts
Life is strange
StarOcean

Are also solid.

Square doesn't have many main studios. From what I can tell most of them are support studios to their bread and butter titles. So even I do agree that the acquisition of Square Enix will be expensive, but the titles will be system sellers.
