Final Fantasy 7 Revelation: Square Enix’s Secret Data-Mine Hints at Surprise Xbox Game Pass Deal
A leaked internal data-mine from Square Enix has sparked a financial firestorm, revealing a previously undisclosed "Project Midgar" that may bring a direct sequel to Final Fantasy 7 Remake exclusively to Xbox Game Pass as early as Q2. The revelation, buried in a routine earnings supplement, suggests a dramatic shift in platform strategy, aiming to capture Microsoft’s 25 million subscriber base and potentially double unit sales. Analysts estimate a $500 million revenue pivot, with the move signaling a historic departure from PlayStation exclusivity that could reshape console warfare overnight.
