The upcomingFinal Fantasy 7stream will be held on January 31 at 5 am ET. While many would likely expect to hear some kind of news regarding theFinal Fantasy 7 RemakePart 2, the developer hasn’t teased any sort of information regarding the title. Instead, the stream has been explicitly teased as having news regardingFinal Fantasy 7 The First Soldier.
While the game saw its official launch a quarter of a century ago, it’s rarely gone stagnant for long. Between movies, spin-off games, ports, and theRemake, there’s often been something for fans to look forward to. WhileFinal Fantasy 7fans may be eager to learn First Soldier, there will likely still be some who are disappointed if there really isn’t anything shared regarding the second part of theRemake.
TheFinal Fantasy 7 Remakelaunched nearly two years ago, and fans are eager for more. Of course, the wait for the Remake itself took a long time, especially with it being delayed. The recentFinal Fantasy 7 Remake Intergradeadded more story content and may be helping to tide fans over. Still, those who are eagerly awaiting upcoming characters, locales, and battles would surely like to see something from Square Enix offering some kind of teaser forPart 2, even if it’s as brief as the initial teaser showing Cloud jumping off the train for Part 1 was.
For now, it remains to be seen when fans will get a new teaser or a release window forFinal Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2. With COVID-19 having changed the way the world works over the last couple years, there’s a good chance that the development of the follow-up has been impacted in some shape or form. Unfortunately, this could mean a longer than expected wait for the next part. With any luck, though, Part 2 can provide the same award-winning experienceFinal Fantasy 7 Remakedid.
