This Rumour of FFVII Remake release date is more likely now?
- Thread starter AzureFlame
- Start date
RE2R, Sekiro, DMCV, MonHun World, etc.. where properly announced at E3 and released early in the next year so why can't this happen to Avengers?
We didn't see anything regarding Ghost Recon Breakpoint up until yesterday and the game is coming out in October.
we won't see anything about Animal Crossing until a month from now and it will release later this year as well.

I think early 2020 is a good bet too. Will release this on PS4 and then when Episode 2 comes they will release an upgraded version for PS5
Whenever PS5 releases, so it can launch on both systems. I don't want to buy a PS4 Pro so close to PS5 :(
PS5 will be BC, they have no reason to launch on both consoles, my bet is that they'll release a patch to use the potential of the ps5 but that's it.
I am betting on this year or early 2020.
SE has been pretty rock solid once they announce an actual date. Last few games havent been delayed iirc.
Square is expecting a big title for this fall that may end up early 2020. their next financial report should be out next week. was May 11th last year. anyways they stated that the reason for that spike would be announced in the lead up to E3 which FF7 Remake just did. I's expect us to get a release window revealed in June. If it comes out in November (before black friday) what direct competition would it have? (personally i'd guess December at the earliest though) If it comes out in the first part of 2020 it should also be fine, but I think they should plant their flag down to clear out other games.
For some odd reason I sort of expect it to release late this year or early 2020, just based on some of the verbiage used in the press statements.
Prediction: Part 1 comes in March 2020. It is much shorter than people would like, and more linear than people feel like it should be/remember Midgar being back in the day. Also not as much in the way of "new/expanded content" as people are hyping themselves up for. You end the game leaving Midgar as people are imagining.
It does however lay a solid foundation, and when part 2 launches in late 2021/2022 (exclusively for next gen systems) it covers significantly more ground narratively/systems wise than part 1 and becomes the fan favorite of the remake series.

I'm suspecting a November 2019-January 2020 window. I don't think they would set an initial release date so close to the end of the fiscal year, because if they need to delay, then that would ruin the expectations for fiscal year report to their investors? Just a thought.
Plus I'm pretty sure they've been trying to stick to the short reveal-release plan, and I'd consider June to be a rereveal, so that makes sense to me.

This is the major factor in its favor. That and the recent twitter changes also seem like hints. They specified "news up until release" and changed their icon/banner to the FF7R symbol, which says to me they likely have a specific timeline in mind here leading up to release.
Given CC2 had somewhat of a framework done in their two years on the project, ~3 years with the in house SE team should be plenty of time to have episode 1 finished. I am fully on team 2020 for FF7R. I would say late 2019, but that seems a tad too hopeful.
My ideal would be Episode 1 January 2020, Episode 2 November 2020 or January of 2021, and Episode 3 late 2021 with a Trilogy Pack for PS5/Xbox NEXT
I remember when we got FF7R as something during the Playstation E3 Experience! If only they had it again :(
yeah i believe it'll happen
that's probably one of the last things they'll design though. this doesn't really say much
Unironically it has far more chances of releasing it than FF7R.
In the blink of an eye, ResetEra went from, "this is 2025 at the earliest" to "this is coming out in less than 9 months." lol
I think it will be September 2020, right before the new systems launch (PS5 will be back-compat so it'll kind of be like a FFIX situation we had in the States).
I bet it's going to look great either way. I mean a linear PS1 remake with some changes, yeah this should blow minds.
That's going to be some wait. Though I don't see a problem with how they have this planned out. We're getting full fledged games out of it.
It's episodic. I don't think we know how many episodes it will be but people are assuming 3 episodes based on the three discs of the original PS1 release.
Probably but I don't mind. Even if it's really good I feel like it won't recapture the magic of the original anyway, so I'm not really fussed about having to play it day one.
Plus nothing worse than getting into the story and then having to stop and wait months for the next part. I'd rather play it all in one go.
I imagine that being the case, but if FF VII releases before the PS5 I will have to buy a PRO because I want to play it with the best performance and visuals possible.
Wouldn't be hard to have a ps5 version ready for launch. Since ps5 launches same year. If this comes out in March and ps5 comes out in the fall it could be a difference of only 6 months.
I could even see a patch (free or small fee) to upgrade your version of the game to ps5 assets.
