It looks like a Square Enix series is in line for a number of remakes, all coming from the company behind the recent Panzer Dragoon: Remake.
A Press release of the Polish game company Forever Entertainment (via ResetEra user sebbbbe_WiiG) reveals that he has entered into an agreement with Square Enix Japan to make multiple remakes, all of which are based on a single intellectual property. What series is it actually working on? The press release states that Forever and Square will withhold the information until it is time for a proper marketing campaign.
Although we do not know which games will return, we do know that the game and story will be the same as in the original. Most of the improvements will be focused on modernizing the visual games, which was also the case with the Panzer Dragoon remake. Square Enix has a huge portfolio of intellectual property, even if you do not count international games that have published it like Tomb Raider and Deus Ex. So it can go anywhere.
While Square Enix has handled Final Fantasy 7 Remake internally, it also has a history of collaborating with external studios for other projects such as the Trials of Mana HD remake that came out last year. Hopefully we don’t have to wait too long until the marketing campaign starts so we can see what Forever and Square Enix are working on together.
