Final Fantasy VII remake director Tetsuya Nomura has revealed that Square Enix has news to share regarding the Final Fantasy VII franchise next month.
Nomura said this in a Japanese livestream about Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier, a mobile Battle Royale, as reported by Video Games Chronicle. What this Final Fantasy VII novelty will be, it could theoretically be anything related to the franchise, including The First Soldier, the original FFVII and its subsequent re-releases, Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis or possibly (hopefully) news about Final Fantasy VII Remake Share 2.
The last thing we heard about the Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 was that it could “differ significantly” from the original, which would not be surprising given the changes and additions in the Final Fantasy VII Remake compared to the original game’s first handful of hours. In an Ideal World, we hear about Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 next month, and then we hear about Final Fantasy XVI shortly after, especially considering that producer Naoki Yoshida recently revealed that it’s nearing the end of the development.
All of this would be related to a tease from a new Final Fantasy 35th anniversary website launched in March. It not only pays homage to the series’ history, but also teases information about upcoming titles. Upcoming titles may include Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2, Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis or even Final Fantasy XVI. Only time will tell right now.
