Square Enix games perform poorly, if any, on the latest iOS releases

Certainly Reddit Elsewhere, many gamers are complaining that some of the games that Square Enix sells on the App Store are no longer compatible with the latest iOS versions. The concern is mainly related to Final Fantasy IX which is not launched directly on some devices. According to numerous reviews on the App Store, the app displays a black screen upon launch indicating that the developer has not yet updated the app (the last update was in March 2017). Shame on a game that is always sold 22.99 euros.

Final Fantasy VII is sold out € 17.99, It hasn’t been updated since 2016 and many players are complaining about various bugs.

We were able to run this version without problems on the iPad Pro 2020, as the screen was adapted even to our 12.9 ” model. However, on the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone XS Max, the app is not optimized and the unpleasant bars occupy a portion of the screen that is not incompatible To boot, but it’s still a shame to lose nearly a third of the screen especially on the tiny iPhone mini already. We haven’t noticed any audio issues.
