Final Fantasy 7 Remake Save Editor Makes Red XIII Playable
Red XIII is not a playable character, and so editing him into your party means there are major limitations on what you can do with him. For example, you can see in the above tweet that he doesn’t have a special move assigned to the Triangle button. He does have his own unique attack animations, though, as these were developed for him to use as an AI ‘guest’ party member. The biggest limitation, though, is that he is removed from the party when the game hits cutscenes or when other party members leave. As this is just a save editor and not a modification (it’s harder, if not impossible, to mod PS4 games) it’s unlikely that Red XIII will ever be more than a temporary playable character on console. However, it does signal that if there is ever a PC version of the game then modders may be able to flesh him out into a more permanent teammate. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=final-fantasy-7-remake-25-new-images&captions=true"] Earlier this year Square Enix explained why Red XIII is not a playable character in Final Fantasy 7 Remake; the developers decided that since he would only be present in the game’s final hours, it didn’t make sense to have him as a full party member. A second game in the series, which will take place after the party leaves Midgar, is already in the works, and so hopefully Red XIII will be fully playable in that game.

Phil Spencer: Xbox Series X Game Reveals Won’t Be ‘Too Much of a Wait’
It's led to renewed speculation after rumours began swirling around the possibility of a Series X event in May, and the fact that Xbox recently trademarked a new logo for Series X. Many of those same discussions mention a reveal for Lockhart, the long-rumoured 'low-end' variant of the Xbox Series X. Xbox Series X is scheduled to be released during Holiday 2020. Right now we know the Xbox Series X specs, we have an educated guess on its price based on those specs, and a full comparison with PS5. What we know far less about is Xbox Series X games, but we have a list of confirmed and rumoured titles for the next-gen console.

Follow him on Twitter.Reviewed plans yesterday for continued sharing through launch. Team is doing great work and adapting. I've never been more excited about Xbox plans. We've heard you, you want transparency/authenticity. We plan to keep showing that way, next step is not too much of a wait (games)
