As you know, FFXIV should be one of the more popular MMORPGs at present, and compared with many similar games that focus more on combat, FF14’s gameplay is generally more relaxed and casual, and the character design is exquisite, especially popular with many female players-in fact, you will often see cute FF14 game screenshots uploaded by them in the game community!

Of course, it is also because of this feature that Final Fantasy 14 is more suitable for adaptation into mobile games than other RPGs (including other games in the same series). In fact, the original game developers have established FF14 Mobile development project in 2024, and now you can even start making reservations.

Although FFXIV has not continued to release more new content since the end of 2024 regarding the specific release date and more development details of the mobile version, we can make reasonable speculations based on other known details.

FF14 Mobile Overview

The developer said that when the game is officially launched, the only content that can be experienced for a short time is A Realm Reborn, but other DLCs will be added gradually according to the schedule, so that new players and old players from the original game can adapt to the rhythm of the game.

In more specific operation settings, the mobile version has adjusted the user interface and touch control, and appropriately simplified the operation process to make the game more suitable for mobile hardware facilities, while retaining the eight-player Extreme Trial to bring out the core gameplay of the original FFXIV game.

Is It Possible To Share Resources With The Original Game?

If you are a player of the original Final Fantasy 14 and want to reduce energy consumption when experiencing the mobile version, you may need this resource integration function, that is, to share the resources on your original game account with the mobile account in some way.

Although it is not known whether the game officials are willing to do this, this function is actually very necessary. It can not only attract old players to play the mobile version but also make new players from the mobile version feel that trying the original game will not be a waste of time. So before FF14 Mobile is officially launched, you can fully look forward to this function.

What News Might FFXIV Mobile Will Release In 2025?

Based on the known news released in 2024, you will know that the initial release of FFXIV Mobile will be limited to mainland China, but based on the characteristics of the original game with multiple servers in different regions, the mobile version in 2025 is likely to continue to release new news about global release.

In addition, the original game will also receive more updates and upgrades in the new year, so FF14 Mobile is likely to release some information about its own development progress in combination with these dynamics to maintain players’ curiosity and expectations.

If someone asked you to quit your job and run a farm in the countryside, you would think that person was crazy, but if someone gave you a copy of Stardew Valley through a platform such as Steam, you might play this game until forget the time. However, the plot of Stardew Valley begins exactly as we mentioned at the beginning!

Stardew Valley, as a farming simulation game, was originally developed by the author Barone alone, and later he cooperated with other companies to release the game in 2016. At first glance, this game seems unremarkable: the rough pixel art style, the 4 ever-changing seasons, and the villagers who don’t seem to change, all of which make you wonder why this game has almost no negative reviews and is even considered one of the greatest games of all time?

Faced with your doubts, we will introduce you to the uniqueness of Stardew Valley and speculate whether it can continue to be popular in 2025.

The Uniqueness Of The Game Itself

First of all, in terms of gameplay, Stardew Valley is definitely enough for you to explore for a long time. Although you may feel that every day is nothing more than farming and raising animals at the beginning, as the progress goes deeper, you will unlock more maps and gameplay, and discover the details and Easter Eggs carefully hidden by the author in the seemingly unchanging adventure.

In addition, you will find that Pelican town and the villagers in the game have secrets. These secrets not only increase the fun of the game but also allow you to discover the special features of the villagers, thereby establishing a unique emotional connection with them, even if they are just NPCs.

If you play at least one year in the game, you will also find that the four seasons, different villagers’ homes, and special places all have background music that is very suitable for them. Their melodies are not complicated, but they are vivid and attractive, and you will not feel bored even if they are played in a loop.

The Author’s Dedication And Love

To this day, the author Barone himself still pays attention to the feedback of players in the game community, and has made efforts to promote and maintain the game. He even released a major update in 2024, which is actually not common among individual game authors. Although this is partly because of the success of the game, it is more because Barone truly loves and focuses on Stardew Valley.

In fact, the key to a game’s success is the attitude of the developer. You can imagine that if the developer himself does not love his work, the game he makes is bound to be just an empty shell, not to mention the long-lasting success like Stardew Valley, and even basic running may not be maintained.

Warm And Interesting Player Community

If you play enough types of games, you will find that there are almost always players arguing in the relevant forums or Steam game review areas, criticizing the game itself, or arguing with other players through replies, but this phenomenon rarely occurs in Stardew Valley community.

Besides sharing strategies and homemade mods, most Stardew Valley players are more willing to have friendly and interesting exchanges, such as how to make Stardew Valley dishes in reality, what the ores in the game actually looks like, etc.

In addition, because Stardew Valley itself is easy to play and easy to get started, there are also players who will share touching stories about their elders or children playing this game on the Internet. And this emotion sometimes has something in common with the infectiousness of the stories between the villagers in the game, which will be easier to impress you, allowing you to gain a derivative feeling of emotion while enjoying the game.

Stardew Valley Should Continue To Be Popular

Combining the above factors and the recent discussion of Stardew Valley on various game platforms and the Internet, you can be sure that not only in 2025, as long as there are no accidents, Stardew Valley will continue to attract new players all the time, and it deserves to be loved and welcomed by people. In fact, for many old players, it is not only a game but also a carrier of emotions.

It Takes Two, the game of the year that won 2021 TGA Award, has left a deep impression on many players. Hazelight Studios has once again brought out their new work Split Fiction after three years.

Hazelight Studios seems to have a special preference for two-player cooperative games. From their first successful work, A Way Out to the annual award-winning It Takes Two, Hazelight Studios has always insisted on the goal of letting players play cooperative games. This time Split Fiction is no exception.

Split Fiction

The protagonists of this game are named Zoe and Mio, who are fantasy novelists and science fiction novelists, respectively. They are two strangers who don’t know each other, but they are trapped in their own novels. They have to work together to escape from their own novel worlds. In the process, the two began to get familiar with each other gradually. The names of the two protagonists come from the two daughters of game producer Josef Fares.

Split Fiction will be released on platforms such as consoles and PC on March 7, and the game is made by Unreal 5 engine. Compared to the themed levels of It Takes Two, the level design of Split Fiction will be more imaginative. Josef Fares’ pursuit is to keep players fresh and not get bored.

The art style of Split Fiction is somewhat different from It Takes Two. Compared with It Takes Two, Split Fiction’s style is more mature. Josef Fares explained that the game style should match the content of the game. The two protagonists are writers and adults, so they will naturally present a mature design style. And the fun of the production team is to try new things. They like to design games with different styles.

Although Josef Fares said that there was no special source of inspiration when he created it, there are indeed some tribute elements to classic games and movies in the game. In addition, Josef Fares said that he likes Half-Life 2, Uncharted 2 and Mario Galaxy 2 very much. Perhaps in Split Fiction, players can find tribute eggs to these works.

Gameplay Of Split Fiction

Josef Fares told the players that there are many side quests in Split Fiction. These side quests are for the players’ good participation experience and to explain the identity setting of the protagonist. The two characters are writers in the game, so the side quests need to be in line with their professional inspiration and creative ideas. Split Fiction contains a huge and rich side quest system. Players may even accidentally miss some of them when playing. This part needs to be explored and discussed by players after the game is released.

Split Fiction is more difficult than It Takes Two, Josef Fares admitted. But he believes that although Split Fiction is challenging, it will not cause players to be unable to pass the level. Even children can have fun in this game. Regarding the situation where some couples broke up after playing It Takes Two, he thinks that this is not caused by the game. In this case, these couples should seek the advice of a relationship counselor.

Hazelight Studios will not add AI players to the game, because the core of a two-player game is to allow two players to communicate frequently and experience fun together. If AI is added, it becomes a pure single-player game, which is inconsistent with the desired goal of Split Fiction.

As for online matching, although it has not yet been added, it may be the future development direction, and its implementation is relatively difficult. Of course, players can find like-minded people from Hazelight community to play games together.

This game will not have DLC because Hazelight Studios has focused their work on the development of new games. After It Takes Two, what kind of fun will Split Fiction bring to players? Let us wait and see.

As a game that successfully promoted the Japanese RPG style to the world, the origin of FF7 can be traced back to 1997. Although the game’s mechanism and art were not perfect at that time, it still showed the unique charm of Final Fantasy series.

In the following two decades, Final Fantasy 7 not only had derivative movies and novels but also launched a remake plan in 2020, bringing you the first part of the remake with more sophisticated technology and animation: FFVII Remake, and continued to launch the second part Rebirth in 2024.

Although the market feedback and player reviews of these two remakes are mixed, you have to admit that they are impeccable in terms of exquisite graphics, making up for the regrets of the earliest FF7. In addition, the plot and character design are also very colorful, such as Cloud, Aerith, and Sephiroth. Therefore, this can’t help but make you curious and expectant. When can you meet the third part?

Release Interval Between Part 1 & Part 2

It is currently known that Remake was launched on April 10, 2020, and the second part Rebirth was released on February 29, 2024, with a full four years in between. However, the reference value of this time may not be as high as you think, because the game company also developed Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade during this period, so part 2 Rebirth actually did not have 4 years of development time.

Possible Launch Time Of FFVII Remake Part 3

As the PlayStation 5 upgrade version of FFVII Remake, Remake Intergrade took about a year to develop. That is to say, it may have taken 3 years for Rebirth to be released, on this basis, so it can be roughly estimated that FFVII Remake part 3 may be launched in 2027. In fact, the development speed of part 2 Rebirth was also faster than many players thought, which may be because the development team used the resources and tools of the first part in the process.

Therefore, although the production of part 3 needs to be more meticulous in order to give you a better experience, it can also use the solid foundation laid by the first two parts, so the possibility of 3 years of development time should be very high. In addition, 2027 is the 30th anniversary of the original FF7. If Remake part 3 can be launched at the same time, it will definitely bring a wider influence to the entire game.
