Will the game finally get revealed years after first being leaked?
Final Fantasy IX has been one of the most beloved games in the franchise ever since its release on the original PlayStation. When a remake of the game was seemingly revealed as part of a massive leak from NVIDIA's GeForce Now, it seemed like a logical move on the part of Square Enix . At the time, NVIDIA claimed that some of the games on that list were"speculative" even as several titles have been revealed as real since.
The Next Final Fantasy Remake?The latest update on the Final Fantasy IX remake comes from the leaker known as Midori. In a couple of posts on Twitter, Midori noted that"development of this title is now very far along," though she is not aware of a release window. Midori also claimed that"the title was originally outsourced to another developer," but development is now being handled internally by Square Enix, as the publisher was unhappy with the results.
Earlier this year, a different leaker claimed that the remake will be"modest" compared to the remake trilogy that Final Fantasy VII has received, but we don't know how reliable that information is. Midori weighed in on that a little, noting that she does not know anything about the"scope" of the remake.
Where There's Smoke, There's FireWhile Midori is a very reliable leaker in general, there's been other evidence to suggest that the Final Fantasy IX remake is a legitimate game currently in development. Last year, Giant Bomb's Jeff Grubb clarified some of the things that he had heard about the remake.
