Final Fantasy 7 is considered the best one in the series, and it was released all the way back in 1997. Now Square Enix wants to remake the game with the Unreal 4 engine and has big plans for this new release.

Very few games get to be as famous as Final Fantasy 7, and it still has a lot of fans many years later. The best that they could have hoped for was some kind of HD remake for the original game, but Square Enix understands very well just how much people want this game to be remade.

The publishers announced that it’s remaking Final Fantasy 7 in Unreal Engine 4, which is practically almost a new game. You can imagine just how excited the fans are right about now. Not much is known about the game itself, but a small trailer has been released and it shows a short gameplay sequence. It’s really, really different from anything that’s been done before.

Since Square Enix is also in the business of making money, they have some plans for the game that won’t make people too happy. They say that the game is simply too big, for today’s standards, to be released as a single title, so they are going to serialize it. Square Enix didn’t say in how many parts it’s going to be split.
