The director of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII remake says he feels that the game was announced “too early.” Game director Tetsuya Nomura addressed fan disappointment after formation about the game was not revealed at E3 earlier this month.
The remake of Final Fantasy VII was first announced over three years ago, at E3 2015. Since then, despite a warm reception and plenty of fan enthusiasm for the project, Square Enix are yet to provide any new information about the game's release. On top of that, it’s now been three years since that initial reveal - three E3 showcases have come and gone, and fans are yet to hear anything more.

In an interview with Italian website (via ), Nomura said that “I am well aware of the fact that we announced [the game] too early,” saying that “even in the industry, word was beginning to spread that we were working on the game, so we just decided not to keep it more secret and officially reveal it.”

Nomura also stated that he felt that his other project, Kingdom Hearts 3, had been announced too early as well. However, new information that came out about that project at E3 earlier this month could mean that FFVII is currently in development alongside KH3.

Nomura went on to talk about the difficulty attached to announcing games, stating that “deciding when to announce your game to the public is always difficult. In our case, we receive pressure from the fans even when we do not announce anything.”

The Square Enix E3 show consisted of a thirty minute pre-recorded segment instead of the live spectacles that we have witnessed from EA, Microsoft and Bethesda. They kicked off showing more gameplay footage of the forthcoming Shadow Of The Tomb Raider, with Lara taking the role of a killing machine as she stalks her enemies in an overgrown jungle. There were also re-caps of a few of the games featured in yesterday's Xbox show, with Just Cause 4, Kingdom Hearts 3, Captain Spirit and Nier Automata all featuring, however further information was very scant. The other games that were featured in very quick trailers were three Final Fantasy XIV Online monikered titles -  Stormblood: Final Fantasy XIV Online, Under the Moonlight and Final Fantasy XIV Online X Monster Hunter World (coming in Summer 2018). We then moved onto Dragon Quest XI - Echoes of an Elusive Age followed by a new Platinum Games title called Babylon's Fall which is launching in 2019 on PS4 and Steam. Then we saw Octopath Traveller on the Nintendo Switch. Finally we saw a trailer for The Quiet Man which is coming to PS4 and Steam. This was completely different to everything else seen as it started as a CGI trailer that seamlessly moved into gameplay footage. More footage of this to come in August. Overall, this felt like a very rushed and thrown together thirty minutes, that didn't give us any further details on games that we hadn't seen before.
