How many episodes will the Final Fantasy VII remake have?

With Final Fantasy VII Remake being broken down into episodes, the hot question right now is how many episodes it will take to wrap up the story. As of yet, the developer has not released any information on how many episodes it will take to get to the end of the tale.

In 2019, producer Yoshinori Kitase told reporter Jason Schreier that they just didn't know how many episodes it would take to complete the story.

I just asked Yoshinori Kitase how many games there will be in the Final Fantasy VII remake - he said he couldn't say "because we don't know each other yet."

It's even difficult to predict how many episodes it will take, as Square Enix seems happy to change some elements of the games, add new content, and even remove something if it just doesn't work in the remake.

An important factor to consider is the investment of time. While it took years to get to the release of the first episode, as it did, there is actually a lot less work to be done for the other episodes. Various systems, the game engine, and many goodies have already been developed for the game, which will reduce the time required to develop subsequent episodes.

Another important factor is profitability. If the first episode is selling really well, then there is always the temptation to expand the game to as many episodes as possible. Based on our experience with the original, a reasonable prediction would be between three and four episodes in total, depending on how much area you walked in the first episode.



There are some obvious story rhythms from the original that would make top-notch cliffhanger endings, and although we won't go into too much detail here to avoid spoilers for people who are new to the world of Cloud and his friends, these story beats would also hint at three or even four episodes.


For now, there are many factors that will affect how many episodes will include the full gaming experience, but over time we'll learn more about what's going on with the game and update this article accordingly.
