Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness could come to PC following its PlayStation 4 release next week, according to producer Shuichi Kobayashi.

-------

FFDream: Are there any plans to port Star Ocean 5 to PC?

Kobayashi: "Since the game is full of action, I wonder the ideal commands for PC might be... What's the best way to play it, in your opinion?"
FFWorld: "With a game pad?"

Kobayashi: "Are people used to playing on PC with a game pad in Europe?"

FFWorld and FFDream: "Yes."

Kobayashi: "I see. So if you have a game pad, you can play it without problems, but I wonder how those who don't have one would play. That's our main concern and why we've pushed to release a PC version later on, so that we could reflect on the controls for players without a game pad. The ASKA engine, which tri-Ace used to develop Star Ocean 5, allows us to easily bring the game to PC, so if we can find a solution to our problem with the controls on PC, porting it should be easy enough for us, although I can't promise that it would be fast."

8-12 months after PS4 release.

Since its a new game and not a HD Remaster like Type-0 HD (which saw 6-8 months).

Argh, not sure if I'll be getting a new computer by then. I might just get the PS4 version at a reduced price this holiday season or something.

I'm building my new gaming PC either November/Dec of this year or February/March of next year.

So I can wait :)!

I'm gonna get FFXV, P5, Pokemon Sun/Moon, etc - too many games to play in the mean time xD

Yeah, I'm holding off on SO5 because I want Odin Sphere Leifhrasir more.

I'm torn between getting a new laptop or making a rig because I kinda need a laptop for work. I won't have much of a problem playing niche games, at least.
