The Last Remnant began its life on consoles as a timed exclusive for the Xbox 360, but judging by a recent Square Enix shareholder meeting in Japan, the Unreal Engine 3-fueled RPG might skip out on the PlayStation 3 entirely.
According to a report by AndriaSang.com (via Joystiq), Square Enix president and CEO Yoichi Wada addressed concerns about the future of The Last Remnant on PS3 with regretful skepticism. "Although it's tough on the development side of things to say that you'll release a game on multiple platforms but end up not doing so, Square Enix has to think about profitability," said the Square Enix executive, continuing, "If there's a gap in the release of multiple versions of a game, and if the first version didn't necessarily see such great success, they have to think that there won't be a change in performance on a new platform."

It's hard to fault his logic there. On top of getting almost universally dumped on in reviews, The Last Remnant got absolutely buried in the holiday rush last year. Still, that's got to be a pretty big bummer for anyone who was looking forward to eventually giving Last Remnant a go on PS3.
