Square Enix confirms in the mouth of its director, Tetsuya Nomura, that the second part of the remake is already underway.
That Final Fantasy VII Remake is intended as an episode video game is something that Square Enix has never hidden. Of course, there are still many unknowns regarding how the transition between chapter and chapter will take place, as well as periodicity and other related matters. However, Tetsuya Nomura, director of the video game, has advanced that the second episode of the remake has been in development for some time. He has done so on the official website of Square Enix, just the same day that new images of the title have been published.
Regarding episode 2, he said the following: “We have already started working on the next (episode) as well, but I am sure that playing this title will expand your expectations just as the world extends beyond Midgar.
“I started working on the Final Fantasy VII remake when I was making the Final Fantasy VII compilation,” he recalls. "We went through Advent Children, Before Crisis and Dirge of Cerberus, and I was planning this for myself for a year as the fifth and final part of the compilation." However, this idea was buried by other projects that began to take shape. "I'm looking forward to going out as much as anyone, because I've been dragging these ideas for a long time," he confesses.

New bosses and more characters
The developer wanted to reassure the players and said that "there is no reason to worry", since even "the Midgar portion" has a huge density and volume. “With regard to the new characters, I said in an interview from the past that there would be no '”. However, the number of NPCs ended up increasing with the idea of creating a richer Midgar. The creative has also confirmed that there will be unpublished final bosses.
Final Fantasy VII Remake will reimagine the magic of the classic on March 3, 2020. It has been more than twenty years since the original went on sale, but the video game has not lost its validity and will return exclusively for PlayStation 4.
