Square Enix \u201cconsidering\u201d remasters of classic RPGs after FF Pixel Remaster popularity SquaresoftSquare Enix is \u201cconsidering\u201d remaking other older games after the success of Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster. The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster is a collection of the first six games before the franchise went 3D on the PlayStation. The remastered titles maintained the original pixelated style while making the older games appear fresh. Beyond Final Fantasy\u2019s first six installments, rumors surrounding a possible FF 9 remake have circulated since a leaker exposed the Nvidia GeForce Now database. The leak previously accurately predicted Tekken 8 and Helldivers 2. While Square Enix hasn\u2019t officially announced the development of a FF 9 remake, the company revealed it was \u201cconsidering\u201d remastering other classic RPGs. Square Enix looking to possibly remaster other old games As reported by Video Games Chronicle, Square Enix addressed one burning question at the company\u2019s 43rd Annual Shareholders\u2019 Meeting Q&A. A shareholder asked about Square\u2019s potential plans to remake other older games \u2013 specifically Xenogears, a game they\u2019d love to play on modern hardware. \u201cWe will refrain from sharing information about new titles, but we are considering various ideas within the company and hope that you will look forward to forthcoming announcements,\u201d a company board member remarked. Another question dealt with the \u201clonger gaps\u201d Square Enix has between releases compared to other video game companies. \u201cI will refrain from speaking in specifics, but I will say that we believe that the strengthening of our internal development organization will be of benefit as the difficulty of developing major titles is becoming extremely high, which also has implications for development lead times,\u201d a board member responded. In 2023, Square Enix\u2019s major releases include Final Fantasy 16, Octopath Traveler 2, and Forspoken. The studio also has several titles in development \u2013 like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Star Ocean: The Second Story R, and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince. Whether they add classic RPGs to this offering remains to be seen.
