The statement must first explain why this is done. Because the spread around COVID-19 caused global attention and caused many delays, the Final Fantasy 7 remake team wanted to ensure that people were not left in the dark.
The statement said: "On April 10, the global release of Final Fantasy VII Remastered will continue." "However, as unforeseen changes in the distribution and retail landscape will vary from country to country, some of you It's increasingly likely that you won't be able to get a copy of your game by the release date. "
The statement continues to affirm that the situation is being closely monitored as the situation develops and that the team will issue another update on Friday, March 20.
This is because at this point it seems inevitable that the release of the PS5 and Xbox Series X was delayed, and there are news that various major developers, including Rockstar, are now working from home. This also extends to other industries: Netflix recently stopped filming in The Witcher Season 2 due to concerns about coronavirus.
For now, the remake of Final Fantasy 7 seems to be starting as planned, and its potential delay depends on the distribution of the paper version in the international market.
