    If you think this is great news, just wait until they announce their next big project: Final Fantasy VII refined! And after that: Final Fantasy VII reworked.

    There are even rumors of a Final Fantasy VII reboot!

      I’d trash on Squenix for this more of it wasn’t going to be free to owners of the previous version and wasn’t likely to fix a bunch of issues (like controller support). As announced it is basically a large patch to the current version.

        As someone who finished Rebirth recently and decided to revisit the original after, I’m actually glad to hear about this newer version. Mostly for the (hopefully improved) controller support.

    Hopefully this doesn’t break all the great mods that’ve been developed over the years

    I’m confused why they’re releasing what’s effectively a patch for the 2013 release as a standalone thing. Why not update what we already have?

      The update breaks save compatibility.

    Still waiting for FFIX pixel hd remake. Or update the regular FFIX with that faster combat animations mod so it’s pleasant out the box
