If Sony is the one who went to Square and started this, that is, they are funding the title, then yeah sure, its exclusive.

But if it is a Square-only initiative, then I am sure they are platform agnostic. No reason not to. Even TR was multiplatform until MS stepped in.

If The Last Guardian and Final Fantasy VII Remake both get revealed. Sony not only has won E3. But this would be one of the best E3s in a long time.

I'm effin' ecstatic, right now. Finished the work on my thesis for today and can enjoy E3 tonight. I was restisting E3 hype in the last few weeks, especially because the PSX hype-train crash made me wary, but with this rumor, I just can't anymore.

LET'S GO!
 
Lol pretty cheeky if true

If it exists and if was already in development when they made that announcement at PSX... then it'd be a masterstroke of PR.

- Pretend to announce a thing that people have been loudly clamouring for...
- Except have it not be that. Instead it's a port of a nearly 20 year old game.
- Seem out of touch and take a verbal drubbing from journalists and fans....
- But come back 6 months later saying "it was all a ruse!" and show the thing people wanted to begin with...
- Making all of us that yelled at you 6 months prior feel bad...
- And begin singing your praises once again, this time with renewed fervor.

you know how you'll read sometimes online people saying stuff like "I'm jealous I wish I could go back and play Final Fantasy VII for the first time again?"

if this does get revealed tonight, I wish I could go back and not see this thread

I don't believe it will be exclusive. Its too big for it to be.
Not sure if you're serious? Pay attention to the game and its launch platform. This also is not the PS3.

Also I can't believe this is happening. Since that cg trailer all the way back in 06. We've waited so long.

For development, Square Enix turned to developer Cyber Connect 2, apparently something that Tetsuya Nomura had long considered.

"Until now, whenever we talked with Nomura about a project that would require outsourcing, his first choice was always Cyber Connect 2" said Final Fantasy VII director, Yoshinori Kitase

Cyber Connect 2 was quite seasoned in the making of action games as well as captivating production

Asked a follow-up on the possibility of a modern remake of Final Fantasy VII, Kitase laughed, "Who knows? Mr. Matsuyama [of Cyber Connect 2] is making the foundation, and after the path has been paved, we might think about making it...

Lining the dots here;
Directed by Kitase
Character design by Nomura
Developed by CC2
UE4/ ARPG

You would think if such a rumor was false and it's being circulated on several major gaming news websites. Square-Enix would have openly stepped forward with the PR team and denied the claims if it was false. Unless of course they haven't got the memo, but no such denial has happened.................yet.

10 years too late to get me very hyped about this. Now I'd much rather see a continuation of the story for Cloud and the rest.

People should stop referencing data that makes me feel uncomfortable because games get ported to platforms I don't like
I don't believe it will be exclusive. Its too big for it to be.
If Sony still has publishing rights to the game it will be exclusive to PS4 but look at it this way....Sony still had those exclusive publishing rights 8 YEARS after the release of Final Fantasy VII when they published Final Fantasy VII Advent Children and Final Fantasy VII Dirge of Cerberus so why would they drop the publishing rights now just 7 years later when Square-Enix said more Final Fantasy VII games were coming as part of the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII project?
