The “Final Fantasy 7 remake” will reportedly feature the same storyline, with very subtle changes. The developers are working on make the visuals appear closer to reality, and will make sure to not interfere with anything that makes the original title iconic.
“There are certain plot points we don’t want to interfere with or disturb, nor will we want to change elements that fans have very big attachments to,” said “Final Fantasy” Director Tetsuya Nomura, adding that there won’t be any new characters in the remake, Crossmap reported.
