Most of Nomura and Kitase’s commentsmirrorwhat wealready coveredinpast interviews.They also confirm Kyrie Canaan is the “new” character fromFinal Fantasy VII The Kids Are Alright.Sumire Uesakavoices Kyrie.
However, one comment from Yoshinori Kitase is pretty interesting, as it touches uponFinal Fantasy VII Remakeand its ending.
Yoshinori Kitase:“The fans have been waiting for 23 years for this game, and I’m happy we’ve been finally able to deliver it to them. It’s a full-fledged game that can be enjoyed by itself, but its story is far from over. With this first game, we showed how there is great potential for the future, and we included many hints regarding what’s coming next. I’m looking forward to seeing the fans' theories on social media regarding what could happen now. We will keep in touch with everyone so we can all make this project grow together.”
Yoshinori Kitase is obviously talking about the final chapter ofFinal Fantasy 7 Remake. He said “23 years”. He’s not counting from 2015, when theRemakewas announced. Kitase is hinting thatFinal Fantasy VII Remakecan be considered the sequel that fans have been waiting for since 1997. Just like what a certain popular anime series is doing with its movies. Overall, it’s nice that he’s acknowledging it and encouraging fans to share their own speculation as they wait for the next game. I’m expecting theFinal Fantasy 7 Remakeofficial twitterto start an official spoiler hashtag to share theories.
