Forums - Gaming Discussion - FF VII Remake Release Date Discussion

After watching the gameplay trailer, I can bet that they`re using FF XV engine in FF VII Remake, so producing it will be more efficient. I hope Square Enix isn`t going through the development hell they went with the Fabula Nova Crystalis, I hope they learned with their mistakes and are able to release a product in a reasonable time. Not another FF versus XIII that takes almost 10 years to be finished.

Maybe Square should just license ff7 to a developer with a good track record?



And maybe not do the whole episodic crap.



I expect it mid-gen of PS5. Episode 1 at least. =D

I imagine KH3 will be out next year, if not the year after, and VII will follow shortly after. However, Square Enix has let me down before.

But it has been known since PlayStation Experience last December that they're using Unreal Engine 4.

Anyway, late 2017.



They already confirmed that it's running on Unreal Engine 4.

As for a prediction, i would say Fall 2017/Early 2018 for Part 1.



FFVII is a masterpiece so I'm okay with them taking a long time to finish. After all more content, and more polish ultimately makes a better game. By the way, they said each part is equal to a full length Final Fantasy game, so this should be huge like FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFLR.



CPU: Ryzen 7950X
GPU: MSI 4090 SUPRIM X 24G
Motherboard: MSI MEG X670E GODLIKE
RAM: CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM 32GB DDR5
SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 4TB
Gaming Console: PLAYSTATION 5

I doubt they miss a 2017 release, seeing as it's the 20th Anniversary of the original's release. I'm hoping for a demo around Jan, the Japanese release date, and Ep 1 around Sept, the NA release date.



I think Chapter 1 for holiday 2017/ early 2018 is a safe bet...
