The news about Final Fantasy 9 Remake may disappoint some fans, especially since the anticipation for this project is immense. In fact, the community is very large and impatient to discover new information.
FF9 Remake, a game eagerly awaited by fans, albeit unofficial, is part of a universally appreciated license, so all eyes are on the Summer Game Fest, where new information is hoped to emerge. It must be said that this is the ideal time for such an announcement. Fans are stamping their feet impatiently, some are drooling. Unfortunately, not everything may go as planned.
FF9 for Summer Game Fest?
According to insider Midori, known for his reliable information about Japanese companies like SEGA and Square Enix, you shouldn’t expect any major announcements about FF9 Remake and Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster this month.
As Midori has hinted in recent months, the release of Final Fantasy 9 Remake is not immediate. The game is still in development and has not been cancelled following the restructuring of the Square Enix group that began this fiscal year. However, the release still seems to be a long way off.
Rumor has it that Square Enix initially entrusted the development of the project to an external studio, but since they were not satisfied with the quality of the work, an internal team took over the management of the remake. The latter would therefore be less ambitious than Final Fantasy VII Remake and would have a more modest scope than the FF7 trilogy. In addition, FF9 Remake would still be in the pre-production phase or in a very early stage of development.
Overall, Midori advises not to get your hopes up for any FF9 Remake and FF Tactics Remaster announcements this month, whether at events like Summer Game Fest, Xbox Games Showcase, or June’s Nintendo Direct (including the date to be confirmed), so you’ll have to be very patient.
Please don’t wait too long for official information on the FF9R and FFTR this month.
