Square wanted to end the exclusivity cause and bring FFXVI to PC as there are not enough PS5's to promise the expected sales they need the game to make.
As a meeting in the middle option Sony agreed to a graphically scaled down PS4 release with cross buy option instead to keep it locked to playstation.
Makes good business sense actually. They care about software sales not hardware. Limiting themselves to one is not ideal and Capcom saw the way the wind was blowing and did this with Village to great profit.

It doesn't affect PS5 owners and it's a win-win for both Square and Sony, what's the problem?
The problem is that Sony wants to stop Square from porting the game to PC and as a compromise they are offering them to also release it on PS4. That's why it's retarded. So retarded it might actually be true.

>Square wanted to end the exclusivity cause and bring FFXVI to PC as there are not enough PS5's to promise the expected sales they need the game to make. That's to rational and reasonable for something Square Enix would do. What will happen is that they'll make a story-DLC with the actual game ending exclusively for PSVR2.

why did they push a launch trailer with [STEAM RELEASE] in it and then create a controversy about exclusivity?
I really doubt this. They probably signed a timed exclusivity deal or something. It will be released on PC, just later.

This is a Naoki Yoshida production, the only person on the board with any fucking sense.
