There has been a fan demand for a Final Fantasy VII remake since the PlayStation 3 technical demonstration in 2005. Square Enix initially refused due to technical restrictions and their work on the Fabula Nova Crystallis series, which consisted of the Final Fantasy XIII and Type-0 trilogies, and Final Fantasy XV. However, times change as key developers on the original were entering into a "Now or Never" stage in their life and Final Fantasy VII is Square's most profitable Final Fantasy title.I never understood it. FF7 is an incredible game. Why remake it? What’s the point? Presumably money, but it has cost a fortune and flopped.
As for Shenmue IV, all I will say is that if I had Elon Musk's wealth, I would write Suzuki-sama a blank check to complete the saga on the condition he uses the latest Virtua Fighter engine for the combat. Also, I would write SEGA a blank check for a Shenmue trilogy remake.
