Which Final Fantasy Gets the Next Remake?

"So it has finally happened; Final Fantasy VII is finally, after a decade of teases being remade. Fans are rejoicing worldwide as the wounds that Square-Enix left us with during PSX 2014 have completely disappeared. Now of course the game has only just been announced and we have no idea how far from release it is, but with such a noteworthy history of teases, demos and more, not to mention that to many Final Fantasy VII is one of (if not) the greatest games of all time. I can’t help but cast my mind forward though, to a time after Final Fantasy VII Remake, to what’s next." - Paul James of BGU

Final Fantasy VIII...it's only fair

It's the main reason I've been wanting a FFVII for so long because I thought they would do FFVIII next then FFIX.

It would be amazing to see the Garden Battle remastered in all it's glory.

FFV and FFVI can easily be done for handhelds and as a digital title for the PS4/Xbox One.

[Snookies12]

Yeah, I think VIII would be my next choice for a remake as well. VI is my favorite of the series, but it just works with the pixel style so it's not in any real need of restoring. IX is amazing too, but I can't see that one in full HD on PS4... That would be really odd looking with characters like Steiner and Amarant.

VIII was always meant to be full sized in its scale, so I can easily see how glorious its transition to current gen consoles would be.

it must be FF6, that is the best FF with the best characters and unique multi-perspective story, every character was like a main character and had skills in combat only he can do.

because its very dated many gamers ignore it, but believe me they don't know what they are missing.

[ShinMaster]

Nomura said they skipped 5 and 6, so those would have to come next.
That said, they're more likely to remake 6 and skip 5.

I want 6 and 9 the most to be remade after 7 :)

[HentaiMasterRace]

Would be perfect!!!

[MrSwankSinatra]

Sorry, but FF VI is the one that needs the remake. That game is leagues better than VIII could ever hope to be.

[3-4-5]

* I'd say Final Fantasy 6,9, or 12 is next.

[bangoskank]

My three favorite. I hope for the same but the legions of fans want one of the weakest entries in the series for some reason: VIII.

[tiffac008]

I think SE would do a remaster of 12 than remake it.

But 6 & 9 are definitely deserving, along with 8. ^^

[meatnormous]

I am torn between 6 and 8. I easily played 6 the most but I really love the story in 8. I would have to say 8 because the game just didn't age well. 6 has charm in its graphics and I still play it to this day.

[manaxknight1]

6 would be a blockbuster remake...ff12 can give an idea of what a vi remake might look like...

[Jaqen_Hghar]

never see 8 or 9 talked about much. A man usually sees 6, 7, 10, 13 (for the wrong reasons), and even 12 talked about a fair deal but the other PS1 games are strangely shunned and a man never could figure out why

[MehmetAlperTR]

Totally agree with you.. VIII is the one of the favorites in the series. Squall Lionheart :)

[Thunder_G0d_Bane]

FF9 would be great. Loved that game.

[MikEyG]

Thank you.

[Relientk77]

I hope Final Fantasy IX, because it's my favorite

wouldn't mind VIII, and Tactics too

[DarkOcelet]

Can we at least get a remastered version of FFXII? I was really sad it didn't show up at E3.

[jambola]

I was really hoping for that too

[Genova84]

Didn't mean to disagree. Finger slipped. I would like to see FF12 remade as well. It's my favorite one since VII.

[Dasteru]

IZJS remaster needs to happen.

[bangoskank]

Agreed my favorite since IX.

[Larry L]

Come on......... I can't be the only person who is basically 100% sure this (FF12 HD remaster) went into development as soon as X HD was a success. (Does anyone know the actual sales of just the HD version seperate from the original version's btw? I'm curious how it sold compared to the original). In fact.......this MAY be a false memory, but I seem to recall a recent (within last few months maybe) statement from someone at SE strongly hinting this was the case.

I'd buy it, ironic considering I HATED 12 at the time. I wanted to control all my characters or have online co-op with others controlling the rest of the party. I didn't want to deal with programming them with that gambit system. However........looking back on it after falling in LOVE with Dragon Age Origins and getting used to programming a party in that way, I actually think I'd have a whole new appreciation for 12. Though I've never actually gone back and tried 12 again since thinking this way. I COULD still hate it. lol

[Genova84]

Chocobo's Dungeon!

[jeromeface]

A Remake of Final Fantasy VI would be such a nerdgasm I'm not sure I could contain it.

[ZaWarudo]

Hopefully FFVI, but not a garbage chibi remake like FFIV DS. Proper 3D with proper character proportions.

[HentaiMasterRace]

I agree, that's why I don't want the remakes on handhelds.

[meatnormous]

That's why I don't want remakes of 5 or 6 , cause that is what they would make.

[kingdomtriggers]

6 seems like the next logical one.

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

Can we just get 7 first.

[Summons75]

Pray for 6, 6 is by far the best....if not I could settle with 9.

[meatnormous]

As much as I love 6, I really think they would screw it up. I consider 6 to be timeless and I still love the graphics of it to this day. 6 tells such a great story and doesn't need great graphics to make it a great game.

[DiscoKid]

VI seems the most logical, even though IX is my favorite.

[mydyingparadiselost]

Definitely VI. I need a giant, talking purple octopus at the opera along with themes of suicide and contemplations of birth in the apocalypse, all in glorious HD! Also train suplexing...

[PlayableGamez]

FFXIII

[VsAssassin]

I want Chrono Cross to be remade. Or better yet, just make a new Chrono game. Come on, SE. Since you're already on a roll, why not do a berserker barrage?

[manaxknight1]

hey since we're on the subject, how bout a secret of mana remake and a final fantasy tactics remake...or saga frontier!

[Paolo11]

Final Fantasy 8. Please make it happen, SE.

[Max-Zorin]

How about FFX

[dmixwell]

FF VIII would look so good. it is a huge game. the best love story in the series. time travel, space travel, man I would love to see that story evolve and get some additions.

so 6, and 8 for me. 9 took a u turn from 7 and 8 so I understand why some people would want that. not my favorite but I'll take it and play that s#it all damn day

[thejigisup]

9 had the best love story, i think the writing was just really well done. But mad respect to 8 i always flip flop between 8 and 9 being my all time faves

[MasterofMagnetism]

Hopefully FF8 cause it's my favorite but 6 or 9 would be cool as well.

[343_Guilty_Spark]

IX is the best FF.

[franwex]

Probably none...as a rebuilt like 7 no. But maybe an updated HD graphical restoration for 8,9,&12. Similar to how they did with 7 earlier.

The reason being that 7 was much more popular with fans and are most likely to buy than other ff games.

Hoping for a 12... :P

[PeaSFor]

9

[thejigisup]

VI, VIII, or IX. IX imo had the most fantastical and amazing world. The characters: vivi zidane, garnet, puck freya, quina, steiner etc fantastic stories even garland was cool, also had some of the most engaging side quests and mini games. The general aesthetic, i wanna play it now.. It was just very well done. Though vi, and viii just make sense, also fantastic games.

[goldwyncq]

VIII and IX should be done at the same time.

[Wedge19]

FFVII took 20 years to do, still isn't even out (heck, doesn't even have any gameplay, or details, or anything), and we're already talking about which game gets a remake next? One step at a time. Let's let the FFVII Remake come out, prove itself (what if they completely ruin it?), and THEN start stoking out about what we want next.

[MasterCornholio]

The one with rusty in it.

:)

[jv1991]

F*ck off with the remasters dang it. We got more then enough already. Want to play those games buy the older consoles!!!

[noxeven]

9 or 6 plz or at least give 9 a pc release
