Final Fantasy VIII Remaster was announced at E3 2019 much to fans delight. Kitase who directed the originally gave us his take on what fans can look forward to with this one as well as how the development went on the last time. For example someone in Hollywood wanted to use FF8 version of gunblade. To see more check out the bullet points below.
- The remaster has the original version’s battle programmer Hiroshi Harada, Tomohiro Kayano who did character model, and Tetsuya Nomura working on it.”
- “The character refinement quality is the result of having the original staff work on it.”
- “Battle Assistance will be implemented.”
- “Chocobo World will not be included. The items you could only get from it will be available through Rinoa’s special ability.”
- “Final Fantasy VIII was the first work that we’ve used motion capture on. At the time we didn’t know how things worked, so we made the actor use a heavy gun. Looking back now, I get the cold sweats thinking about any worst case scenario accidents that could’ve happened.”
- “Final Fantasy VIII has had its share of influence in Hollywood entertainment, be it a game screen shown in a Hollywood movie or an offer we got last year from a major video game-related film that wanted to use the Gunblade.”
