Among the gamers Square Enix’s “Final Fantasy 7” is the legend of all games. Released in 1997, the PlayStation (PS) game will return to PS4 platform.

The announcement was made at PlayStaion Experience (PSX) 2015, last Sunday. Square Enix, its maker stated that the game will be perfectly revived with superb graphics with gaming experience much enhanced from its original.

However, as the game maker announced the game will be cut into four parts and distributed in time order, there were disappointments among the fans. But Kitase Yoshinori, the game’s producer said it’s a necessary process to carry out the perfect remake of the game.

"One thing that we wanted to be clear about during this weekend to accompany the new trailer was the scale of this project. We wanted to tell you this now and not in the future so that you’d share our vision for what we want to deliver. The biggest reason why we haven’t done a remake until now is because it’s a massive undertaking to reconstruct FINAL FANTASY VII from the ground up with the current technology. Producing a proper HD remake of FINAL FANTASY VII that maintains the same feeling of density of the original would result in a volume of content that couldn’t possibly fit into one instalment." Kitase Said.

The producers explained that it’s because the volume would be too large to fit into a single episode. So many parts of the original games are remade and new features being added, releasing the game by four episodes is inevitable.
