Midgar was narrow and linear in the original. They actually opened it up quite a bit in the remake.
And Nomura already stated that the next game will be more open. It was actually among the reasons why they decided to have the first part focus entirely on Midgar. Because the world design greatly changes once the player has access to the world map, so they decided it was better to have the first game be one style, and leave the other style for the next part so it can be better explored and fleshed out.
