5 Final Fantasy Games That Should Be Remade Next

With Final Fantasy VII Remake still fresh in our minds, we thought it would be fun revisit some of the series' most notable entries and make a case for why they are worthy of being the next Final Fantasy remake.

[Thundercat77]

Square Enix is fully on board in the FF7 Remake which I believe may have 4 parts. That project could end on 2025. I don't think they will start working on another FF Remake until they finish FF7.

I would honestly prefer a new FF game but if decide to Remake another one. It should be FF 6.

[Scissorman82]

That actually raises an interesting question: do you think we have to wait for FF7 Remake to be complete before we see FF16?

[Thundercat77]

It will depend. Is FF16 going to have a complete separe team from FF7 Remake?

[SegaSaturn669]

FF6 desperately needs a remake with all its bugs and programming errors.

[Spurg]

4 more games in the span of 5 years at the same quality of FF7. That not even taking into consideration FF7 took 5 years to make.
I think you need to be more realistic here. Games take a MINIMUM of 2-3 years to build. So according to the numbers it's gonna take 9 more years with a development time of 3 years for the story to come to an end.

2 years development
2022-FF7-2
2024-FF7-3
2026-FF7-4
FF7's story comes to an end towards the end of next gen.

3 years development
2020-FF7-1
2023-FF7-2
2026-FF7-3
2029-FF7-4

FF7 story ends 2-3 years into the gen after next gen.

Square enix has a lot to do.

Square Enix has lost its old Final Fantasy core fans....
They thought in a wrong way when the plan of FF7 went into a discussion.
They should used the FF15 Develop system instead of creating a new one, a game that is not, even more, an open world with this sliced ridiculous idea.

[Jonaspolos]

Lost all the interest in FF7 due to this nonsense sliced game like many others thousands of fans of the game.

[Thundercat77]

You are on a minority. FF7 Remake is having more success than what Square Enix expected. What message do you think that success tells to Square Enix? That people didn't like it?

Totally the contrary. The message that Squre Enix received is that people loved it. You may not like it, but that won't change reality.

[jambola]

that's funny
cos when i lose interest in things i move on instead of going into comment sections specifically to talk about them

[Blackcanary]

SE have already stated that after FF7 Remake they would like to the younger debs take over and remake FF8.

[-Foxtrot]

I just want to see the Garden Battle in all it's high def glory.

[gold_drake]

i think they should tackle 5, 6 and 8 next.

[Spurg]

FF7 Remake is not a remake its more of a reboot with a new story.
I don't think we should be giving any of the other final fantasy the same treatment.
Just remaster it by overhauling the graphics and smoothing gameplay...that's it.

[jambola]

nobody said same treatment
also can we just stop with this pointless "not a remaster/make/boo/imagining&qu ot; crap

[Jonaspolos]

i doubt that most of does who bought this version will certainly not buy a 2nd part. Fans wore deceived with this version. Square Enix should ashamed.

[Blackcanary]

No they wont I am a huge FF7 fan and I loved the remake and will be getting part 3 I know alot of fans that also enjoyed that can't wait for part 2 so I don't what on earth it talking about.

[jambola]

um
want to try that again?
in english?

[Gatsu]

Sadly I think they have only time for one and that's FF7.

[jambola]

I love 8 but i think 6 is the most deserving
especially with it's unfortunate history with terrible ports and remasters
plus ff8 still looks ok to play

[Miraak82]

The only FF’s SE should be worrying about are FF7r , FF14 and FF16 to showcase the next gen . If they do remake anything the should revisit some of their old IP .,. Xenogears , Chono Trigger ?

[Blackcanary]

I would love to see The Bouncer their first PS2 game as a remake.

[Jonaspolos]

Using just the same development system used in FF15 pocket edition they could remake FF5 and FF6 in less than a year and I think a lot of FF series fans would be very pleased.

[TenkoTAiLS]

While the way they remade FFVII works well with it being an early 3D PSX era game, I personally think the Octopath Traveller Engine would make a stunning base for a FFV or FFVI Remake.

[Knightofelemia]

I'd like to see Crisis Core at least get a remaster the game is great its like one of those hidden gems even Square is forgetting about it. A remake of FF8 would be great I'd also settle for a remake of FFX even thought it just got a remaster. Wish Square would remake their other games like Xenogears, Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, Vagrant Story, Parasite Eve 1&2. I love FF games even though I never got into them until the PS1 but Square has other gems in their arsenal besides Final Fantasy.

[rainslacker]

Or, just make a new game in the FF series.

[Blackcanary]

The Bouncer as a remake would be fantastic it was their first game for the PS2 even a remaster would be cool.

[AK91]

The bigger question is will SE develop this kind of development cycle for future FF games after FF7R, FF15 didn't really become worth a purchase until 2 years after its release. I hope they don't take this route.

[terrorofdeath]

FFIX needs to be remade
