The title for FF7 Remake part 3 has been decided!
โI remember an interview I did at Paris Games Week about how weโd narrowed it down to two
It was up to Mr. Nomura to decide which it is. And yes, after returning from Paris Games Week, he did choose one, so I can say the title has been locked."

โI believe that at this point the game is playable, technically, but we are still trying to polish it so it is at a quality where we can deliver it to our players.โ

But he says โyou never know what song will become a hitโ and that maybe it's because the song isn't filled with too many various ideas that it is popular
Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uemastu says he is not sure why people love โBattle at the Big Bridgeโ from FF5!
He says the reason he doesn't want people to talk about it as much as they do is because he says there was no big inspiration or idea behind it...
Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uemastu says the music for FF4, 5 and 6 followed the same pattern as FF1, 2 and 3!
- FF1 was trying to figure things
- FF2 was experimenting
- FF3 was the completion stage
He says FF4 was also figuring things out, FF5 was experimenting and FF6 being the completed form
When remake originally released on PS4. PS4 was still quite popular in Japan. These days Nintendo dominates like crazy tho. So Remake on Switch will reach a new audience but not sure how many people will pick it up in Japan.
