Final Fantasy X character designer Tetsuya Nomura, event director Motomu Toriyama, scenario writer Kazushige Nojima, and more have been interviewed in the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Final Fantasy X.
Nomura has revealed that an outline of Final Fantasy X-3 exists, but the concept for the game is dormant for now.
"Nojima has more or less written an outline of what a Final Fantasy X-3 would look like if it existed," Nomura said. "[The audio drama] Final Fantasy X: Will and [novel sequel] Final Fantasy X-2.5 were written based on this. It’s dormant now, but the concept itself exists."
Toyama added, "The possibility isn’t zero. But I can’t talk about it until we finish production on Final Fantasy VII Remake first."
"I had the opportunity to work with people who got into the games industry after playing Final Fantasy VII, but now that phase is shifting and I’m working with people who got into the industry after playing Final Fantasy X," said Nojima.
Thanks, Gematsu.

Interesting, I thought the reception to X-2 was, at the least, leaning negative. Personally I loved the combat system, I actually thinking it's one of, if not the best in any Final Fantasy. I can see the presentation being... awkward for some, but overall it wasn't a bad game.
I would love to see what they do with a FF X-3. I've waited 17 years for a continuation and the aftereffects of Tidus' revival.
Woah my ff10-2 hd remaster is just sitting here,
While I think that ff10 was an absolute masterpiece I can't get myself into ff10-2 hopefully I can one of these days!
Replayed ff10 a billion times on PS2 and ps4!
this would be a pre-order game for me! please make this game.
Leave it dormant. If I recall anything about the HD remaster, the bonus 'audio' for 'Will' was down right weird and seemed to not even understand the story it was originally tied to.
Yea I don't get why they would even consider this. The game was barely ok. I don't even remember the storyline yet I remember obscure details of FF3 (6) when I played it during the SNES era.
