Final Fantasy XIII Trilogy Heads To PC
Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy XIII-2, and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy are coming to PC. The first in the series will be out next month, and the Steam page for the game is live now.
Originally released in 2010, Final Fantasy XIII was the best reviewed of the three by Game Informer. Square Enix plans to release all three by spring 2015.
The PC release will feature Steam trading cards, and will also be available from Square Enix’s online storefront. The game is priced at $15.99, but Steam pre-orders are discounted by 10 percent.
Our Take
Square Enix is making smart moves porting more of its content to untapped audiences. The pricing here makes sense, though will likely spark new conversations about mobile pricing, which are in lock step with the PC price of Final Fantasy XIII. I’m interested to see how the ports fare, as these are games that have been on my radar.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
