"The next-generation consoles will have backward compatibility, so we plan for the time being to make our new titles available for both current and next-generation consoles. It will therefore be somewhat farther down the road that we release titles exclusively for the next-generation consoles."

I guess this is gonna be common for a while.

Well, isn't that how it is at the start of the Gen for most games? Only the Console Maker has an incentive to make the game exclusive to the new console.

Yeah usually.

Although sometimes the last gen version of a game is different. I think only Shadow of Mordor was like that this gen.

A difference this time is that potentially you can get the next gen version for free if you buy the last gen version. This was done for some games this generation but only for a limited time.

Good, won't need a PS5 for all 10+ parts of FFVIIR.

If I were a 3rd party developer/publisher and heard that Microsoft said they didn't have any plans to make any exclusives for their own system at launch, I'd be foolish not to follow suit. Can't blame square for trying to maximize their profits.

Given their recent track record, they won't have the next gen exclusive ready until the ps6 unless they started working on the title a decade ago.
