Polygon.com • • technology
Key Points:
- Final Fantasy 14 producer Naoki Yoshida indicated that large-scale remakes like the Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy are unlikely for other entries in the series anytime soon due to their immense scope.
- Yoshida highlighted Final Fantasy 6 as an example, describing it as an incredibly huge game that would likely require four or five installments if remade in a similar style.
- The Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy itself has taken nearly a decade to develop, with the final part, Revelation, expected in Spring 2027, underscoring the significant time investment such projects demand.
- Yoshida suggests that the scale and complexity of certain classic titles make modern remakes challenging and potentially unfeasible if they aim to match the quality and depth of the Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy.
