Future Final Fantasy Remakes Teased by Square Enix to Be Even Longer Than FF7 Trilogy

Naoki Yoshida said a Final Fantasy VI remake on Final Fantasy VII Remake’s scale could need four or five installments.

  • According to Naoki Yoshida, modernizing classic Final Fantasy titles like FF6, FF8, and FF9 on the scale of Final Fantasy VII Remake would require four or five separate installments.
  • Yoshi-P compared the project to Final Fantasy VII Remake, which began in 2020 and concludes next year with Final Fantasy VII Revelation launching in 2027.
  • Because classic Final Fantasy games are massive in scope, Square Enix would likely need four or five separate games to recreate the experience faithfully on that scale.
  • Smaller remakes remain possible, as Square Enix could pursue an HD-2D Final Fantasy Remake in the style of Octopath Traveler without rebuilding every game on that massive scale.
  • This alternative format would allow Square Enix to modernize the beloved RPG without stretching its enormous story across five separate game releases.
