Final Fantasy VII Remake director and concept designer Tetsuya Nomura has revealed development on the second part has begun.
"We’ve already begun working on the next one as well, but I’m confident that playing through this title will expand your expectations just like the world that extends beyond Midgar," said Nomura.
He added that despite the first part focused on Midgar that the size is larger than many people would expect. " Even in this Midgar portion alone, the density and volume are so great that I had to give directions to lighten them," he said.
Final Fantasy VII Remake will launch worldwide for PlayStation 4 on March 3, 2020.

I assumed this was the case years ago. Game development comes in stages, and those who work on the core planning and development stages wouldn’t leave the second half off until much later than beginning the first half. It’s kind of like the development of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings. While the film was 3 parts, much of the work on the second and third parts was already done long before filming began for the first film. The design elements, for example, were largely done for all three films before even moving onto prop production and casting. FF7 Remake’s development process wouldn’t be much different.
Part 2 and 3 should surely take a lot less time as gameplay and magic system should remain the same. This isn't going to be like Mass Effect where the first was a success so they started working on and improving the gameplay for the 2nd and 3rd games. (Or FF13 where it's a game then 2 sequels each with their own mini gameplay and combat updates). It's 1 game and I'd hope each time things continue over so they can't really change the gameplay format up each time, just add more items, scenes and animations to complete the story. Maybe I will wait for the complete edition.
That's nice! But this is really only a fan service game. You simply forget what has happend in the first part when you play the second part years later. Heck, I don't know if I'm playing video games at all when the last part will be released in about 20 years...
Could just wait for all of them to release and then play it....
It's really no different than The Lord of the Rings movies or the Harry Potter movies or The Hobbit or Pirates of the Caribbean....I mean, c'mon....that is such a bad criticism.
