IGN reports that game company Square Enix has announced that the Remake will be coming in multiple parts, with each one giving players a unique playing experience.

Aside from this, no other detail has been released, which has left the anticipating public in the dark.

This “multiple part” detail announcement has received both negative and positive responses from the gaming community. According to Attack of The Fanboy, this information has made many fans crazy.

The news outlet reports that huge open-world games are never released periodically, although at times they receive update patches. Episodic games, as they are called, are usually reserved for story-driven titles. Although these games are fun, they depend mostly on the game's main storyline and give less room for in-game freedom.

This announcement has caused many to speculate that the upcoming remake is not what they are hoping that it would be. On the good side, others see this as a good thing.

A thread on NeoGAF shows fans excited about the idea of the Remake's episodic release. This is because it is said that the game is being remade in great detail, that it has to be released in increments. Should this be true, then the game will be even bigger than it already was.

Speaking of working on a huge remake, Gamespot reports that Square Enix is working with game studio CyberConnect2 in developing the “Final Fantasy VII” Remake. CyberConnect2 is known for the “.Hack” series of role-playing games as well as the “Naruto” fighting games.

The studio's involvement in the remake has been confirmed by remake director Tetsuya Nomura and producer Yoshinori Kitase in an interview with Famitsu.

This is not the first time that the studio has worked on a “Final Fantasy” game, as it has previously worked on the “Final Fantasy VII G-Bike.”
