The second part of Final Fantasy VII Remake will shake players’ expectations, according to the producer.
Speaking at CEDEC + Kyushu Online 2020, producer Yoshinori Kitase commented on the second part of the remake that is currently in development, saying the team wants to develop a game that not only meets fans’ expectations, but also confuses them. This is something that was already done in the first part of the remake, but the wording used by Kitase, as reported by the translator @aitaikimochi, seems to suggest something much bigger.
During the conversation, Final Fantasy VII Remake co-director Naoki Hamaguchi also commented on the development team, saying that the new team that had joined since the release of the first part of the remake last year specifically wanted to work on the second part because they played the remake. The new team is providing new ideas to improve the game’s action battle system.
