Final Fantasy VII Remake To Feature Realistic Graphics But No New Characters

The Final Fantasy VII Remake will be designed to have realistic graphics, the game’s director Tetsuya Nomura said in an interview with Famitsu Magazine. He shared some more details about the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Remake for Playstation 4, adding that there would also be no new characters added to the remake.

“There won’t be new characters. As for the visual taste, we’re doing them to match today’s visuals and appear closer to reality,” he said. When asked about the game system, he said that he couldn’t share many details about it, but that they would be going for a “more realistic system.”

Nomura said last week that Final Fantasy VII for PS4 “is not a simple remake.” He believes that simply prettying up the graphics for the current generation of consoles would not be enough. The remake will feature updated gameplay, but he also hasn’t gone into many details on that. It’s a good move, considering the original came out way back in 1997. A direct re-release of a 20-year-old game may not do so well today.

As well as featuring a more realistic graphical style, Nomura confirmed that no new characters would be introduced in the Final Fantasy VII remake. Whether that means no characters new to the series, or just no characters other than the ones in the original Final Fantasy VII isn’t clear.

As for the hardware, Nomura said that the Final Fantasy VII remake would definitely be on PS4 first. He said they hadn’t thought much beyond that, but didn’t rule out an Xbox One or PC version.

The story will also be expanded. Nomura said last week there would be more plot devices in the story, so we can expect that it will be a bit longer than the original. He told Famitsu that a remake has to “take a different approach and make something that suits the times.”

There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding Suicide Squad since its release in February. Warner Bros. was let down by the game’s underwhelming sales, but they remained committed to turning their live service vision into a reality. An exciting new DLC update has been released, introducing The Crown Prince of Crime to the game.

As the game’s first live season begins, players will have the chance to take on Green Lantern and, in the end, unlock The Joker as a playable character. Which Joker are you referring to? This is quite intricate. Furthermore, players can look forward to the inclusion of a Battle Pass, a variety of new shop items available for purchase, exciting Incursions and Strongholds to partake in, as well as an expanded selection of Infamy Sets and Notorious Gear to amass.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.
