Final Fantasy series producer Yoshinori Kitase has said the forthcoming third part of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy won’t “betray the fans of the original”.
Kitase commented on fan conjecture around how much the story will change from the original, as part of an interview with Anime News Network, alongside Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth director Naoki Hamaguchi and battle director Teruki Endo.
“We’ve always kept the original in mind, and I don’t think it’s going to be a storyline that will betray the fans of the original [game],” he said. “But also, at the same time, [it’s] been 27 years since the release of the original Final Fantasy 7. There are these things we feel we can only do now in the remake project that can bring a new happiness, a new sort of feeling of satisfaction to the players playing this game now 27 years later. What this will entail exactly is something we hope players will experience soon.”
