Developer Square Enix has recently announced that the studio is working on a PC version of Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis. During a recent livestream, the developer revealed that the game which launched on iOS and Android earlier this month, will also be available on PC via Steam. The PC version is currently in the development stage.
Further, during the livestream, the developer also confirmed that Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis will enable players to share data between the PC and mobile versions. However, the developer did not confirm what specific data will be shareable. It is also not clear if the rewards achieved in the mobile version can be carried over into the PC version or not.
Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis, is a turn-based mobile role-playing game (RPG) that revolves around the world of Final Fantasy VII. Besides retelling the classic story of Final Fantasy VII, the game also brings in the elements from other media in the Final Fantasy VII universe. These include Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, and the movie Advent Children.
There are currently two ongoing projects that are planned as the remake of Final Fantasy VII. One of them is Ever Crises while the second one is named Final Fantasy VII Remake. Similarly, Final Fantasy VII Remake will have a second installment, titled Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, that the developers plan to release in February next year.
When Does Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis Release on PC?
Notably, the livestream in contention and the announcement post that confirmed the arrival of Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis on Steam were both in Japanese, without English subtitles. That also leads to the question if a Western PC version of Ever Crisis will arrive or not.
So technically, the Western version is not yet confirmed. However, before the announcement, Square Enix had revealed that the closed beta for Ever Crisis was successful. Thus fans are hoping that the PC version of Ever Crisis will also be available in the West.

That being said only a PC version of the game on Steam has been confirmed. Whether or not a PC-exclusive version will be made available still remains a mystery. Meanwhile, players can enjoy the game on their PC via Steam once it officially releases.
Currently, the release date for Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis of the Steam version on PC has also not been declared, and Steam has also not created a page for the game on the platform. Fans may have to wait a little longer to get the games on PC.
