Square Enix signals openness to traditional Final Fantasy remakes after Resonance success

Square Enix told shareholders that the strong market response to the HD‑2D title *Final Fantasy Resonance* could lead the company to develop further classic‑style remakes of the series. The publisher emphasized that each project will be evaluated individually rather than following the action‑heavy formula of the *Final Fantasy VII* remake trilogy. Executives said they will balance market trends and fan expectations, listening to feedback about returning to round‑based combat and retro‑inspired graphics. Earlier HD‑2D projects such as *Final Fantasy Tactics – The Ivalice Chronicles* sold over a million copies, reinforcing the potential for more nostalgic releases. The company did not commit to any specific titles, noting that a remake of *Final Fantasy VI* is not currently a priority.
