Speaking during a panel today at G-Star 2024 going over the creation of the remake trilogy, the themes upon which each game was built, and more, as reported by 4Gamer, Director Naoki Hamaguchi provided a small update on the third yet-to-be-named entry in the series.

The one thing about the third entry in the Final Fantasy VII Remake that Hamaguchi-san could talk about was the map. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth provided a big map to explore, but with the introduction of the Highwind airship, the development team needs to allow players to experience the world from a higher perspective. He also added that they will not take any shortcuts to achieve this and will take on the challenge of being able to fly freely around the map.
