Square Enix's Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade released for PC via Epic Games Store last week on December 16.
A new datamine by Twitter user @AtelierTool reveals the game will most likely be coming to Steam once the Epic Games exclusive contract ends. The game itself has a Steam AppID that was created six months after the release of the PS4 version in October 2020.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade first released for the PlayStation 5 on June 10, while the original Final Fantasy VII Remake released for the PlayStation 4 in April 2020.
I can confirm that #FinalFantasy VII Remake is planned to release on Steam after Epic Games exclusive contract end.

Good thing I was waiting for a Steam release regardless because I’ve read the PC port is trash right now lol please please please let Kingdom Hearts only be timed exclusive to EGS too!
For sure! I’m of the opinion that a game should be on as many available platforms as possible. Have a game be available on GOG, Steam, and EGS. Let players choose. If a a new storefront wants to give it a try, make that storefront unique that’ll make players want to try your storefront. Not by bending players arms by forcing them onto it.
Since Epic has become mostly the Fortnite studio (when was the last time they released anything else?), and EGS appears to be a long-term play for them, we'd probably have to see Fortnite suffer a massive drop in revenue before we saw any pullback from their attempts to make EGS a thing.
Their long term game is doing as little as possible, in terms of building their own roster, it's more easier for them to just buyout the popular co-op/PVP based games that are on the market.
Also having UE near the top spot for one of the most used engines, as well as passing it around Hollywood, will also be making them money.
Anyone expecting them to make their own games from the ground up like Sony/MS/Nintendo are gonna be in for a bad ride. It's sad that they basically killed off what could have been a great Moba, as well as UT, just so they could keep the Fornite train going.
That being said, EGS isn't nearly as important to it's CEO, as Tim stated "it will be the devs who win the war, not the consumer", which means he's more about getting devs on his side, while tossing some freebies and shiny "exclusives" to the consumer, which appear to be easy gets for him and easy wins for whoever buys them on the storefront (though his words on prices being reduced over time was an objective lie).
SE to Xbox: Fuck them xbox players.
Yes please and thank you.
I'm Hoping Neo The World The Ends with you is a timed Exclusive .
waiting for the inevitable gamepass release
