Fans are still at it, keeping their fingers crossed for a Final Fantasy VII remake. Time and again, Square Enix has said no. Yoshinori Kitase recently said at FFXIII‘s Korean launch that if they were to remake FFVII, it will take them 10 times longer than when they did FFXIII.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For your note, FFXIII was developed in 3-4 years. The producer went on to expound on that statistic:

 

 

 

 

“To make FFXIII at this level of quality, it took us 3 to 4 years. If we were to make FFVIIFFXIII in the same style of , it would take 10 times as long, so it would be difficult to take it up immediately. However, we always keep in mind how often this is requested.”

 

 

 

 

In not so many words, that means no.
