The biggest deviation to the remake wasn’t just in how it played or how fantastic it looked, but also in the story that it told. A hard left in a direction that opened Final Fantasy 7’s classic tale up to exciting new possibilities, you can expect Part 2 to make good use of that paradigm shift to take the franchise in a new direction that is fresh new ground for players to explore.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 is naturally in the works, but like most game projects this year it happens to be feeling the lingering effect of COVID-19 and drastic lockdown measures to contain the virus. That pandemic paradigm shift has had an influence on how Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 is being developed, but fret not! It’s nothing that Square Enix can’t handle.

With the Midgar chapter over, there’s still a whole lot of content left to tackle albeit with brand new plot twists, characters and summons. The foundation is there, the next game will likely be a PlayStation 5 timed exclusive and new tech should make for a smoother and less padded out experience.

March was starting to look like a bit of a too busy month for gamers this year, but good (and mostly terrible) news! One of the heaviest hitters of the year won’t be making its original release date, instead slipping a few weeks back and going head to head with Cyberpunk 2077 instead. The game in question? None other than Final Fantasy VII Remake, which is ditching its original release date of March 3 for April 10.
