The change of date of the long-awaited Square Enix title forces the exclusivity contract with Sony PlayStation to also extend for a few weeks.
The delay of Final Fantasy VII Remake on PlayStation 4 next April will also affect the condition of exclusivity that narrows the Square Enix title with Sony Computer Entertainment. As we learned in December, the game was only available on the Japanese platform until March 3, 2021; from then on, you can see the light in other systems. Now, that date has changed.
The source of the information is the cover of the game itself, which has been forcedly updated because of this circumstance. The PlayStation exclusivity contract is exactly twelve months, so Sony can keep the “PlayStation Exclusive” label until April 10, 2021, as indicated in the lower right corner of the new cover image of the video game.
The situation, although predictable, was not confirmed; Now it is.
