Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Director Is Extremely Confident In Upcoming Title

gameranx.com:

Let’s be honest here for a moment. 2023 had many ups and downs in gaming, even if Geoff Keighley doesn’t want to admit it! One of the biggest “downers” of 2023 was a host of games coming out before they ever should’ve been released. Not only does that look bad on the industry, but on the people who worked on the games that should’ve known it would’ve been bad if released then. Yes, some of them might have been fighting back, but other times, it was clear that they were fine with those early releases. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s director won’t be among that cast of “characters” when the game releases next year.

In an interview, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth director Naoki Hamaguchi stated that the game is the “most confident” he’s been in for a title he’s worked on. For context, he’s been a part of this RPG franchise for 15 years! So, he’s seen many highs and lows within this franchise. That means he must really believe in the game. And as you can see in the tweet below, he thinks gamers will “lose their minds,” especially over a certain moment.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Game Director Naoki Hamaguchi says this is the most confident he's ever been in a game.

"He thinks people are going to lose their minds… there's a moment in this that, when they saw it, everyone was kind of in awe."

While we can’t say for certain what moment he’s talking about, Square Enix has been teasing a big change toward Aerith, which might be what fans are begging for the most. Or, it could be something to do with Cloud or Sephiroth or one of the other main characters. It’s hard to say at this point, which is why we’ll have to try to be patient and wait for the revelation to come.

Regardless,
