In particular, director Naoki Hamaguchi doesn&#8217;t seem to want to work on a Final Fantasy 6 remake.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<p>This admission came during an interview with Game Informer about next year&#8217;s <em>Final Fantasy 7 Revelation<\/em>. Hamaguchi, who directed all three games in the Final Fantasy 7 remake series, was asked about what he may develop next. His response indicated that he knows fans want Square Enix to create a <em>Final Fantasy 6<\/em> remake, but that he doesn&#8217;t have much personal interest in developing that kind of game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I do see a lot of fans and community asking me to take on the helm for a <em>FF6<\/em> remake,&#8221; he explained.&#8221;So, I&#8217;m seeing a lot of that floating online, but, you know, a <em>Final Fantasy 6 Remake<\/em> or any other remake, it could be me, or it could be someone else. Personally, I think that it might be in better hands if it went to another creator in Square Enix.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Considering the past decade of his life has been spent working on a reinterpretation of an existing game, it&#8217;s understandable that Hamaguchi doesn&#8217;t want to jump right into a similar project after wrapping up work on <em>Final Fantasy 7 Revelation<\/em>. As for what he wants to work on, Hamaguchi told Game Informer that he does plan on sticking around in the JRPG genre.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In terms of what I personally want to do, obviously, I think my next creative work is also going to be a JRPG,&#8221; Hamaguchi explained. &#8220;When you look at all the other titles that we have released at Square Enix, not just the FF7 Remake series, I think Square Enix, as a brand, as a company, is more than capable of delivering this grand-scale RPG that could resonate to gamers across the world. Fans might have a lot of different expectations, but for me personally, I do want to take on this new challenge with another RPG title after this, whether it be Final Fantasy or a different IP.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It will still be some time before Hamaguchi has to determine what his next project will be, as <em>Final Fantasy 7 Revelation&#8217;s<\/em> development has not wrapped up yet. It will be released for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X in spring 2027. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/ff7-revelation-director-not-working-on-final-fantasy-6-remake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While a Final Fantasy 6 remake is in high demand from Square Enix&#8217;s fans, don&#8217;t expect that to be the next project the Final Fantasy&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":60908,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[2829,20498,667,2505,16172,8298],"class_list":["post-60907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-gadgets-reviews","tag-fantasy","tag-ff7","tag-final","tag-remake","tag-revelations","tag-visionary","wpcat-32-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=60907"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60907\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/60908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=60907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=60907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=60907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
