Square Enix doesn't promise to keep games playable forever, but it will "continue to create pathways" for fans to enjoy them "even after service has ended"
Square Enix has stated it will continue to find ways to make games enjoyable after their service has ended, though these methods may not always be what fans desire. While the company shares cutscenes on platforms like YouTube for titles such as Nier, and preserves some remasters, the article argues this is insufficient for true game preservation, citing examples like Kingdom Hearts where entire games are only available as cutscene compilations.
