A Single-Player Final Fantasy 14 Could Happen If It Weren't For One Big Problem, Director Yoshida Says

A Single-Player Final Fantasy 14 Could Happen If It Weren't For One Big Problem, Director Yoshida Says https://ift.tt/okec5nf Final Fantasy XIV 's North American Fan Festival is currently underway in Anaheim, California, and with it has come some huge announcements about the MMORPG's future. During the festival's two-hour-long opening showcase, game director Naoki Yoshida (referred to as Yoshi-P by the community) announced that XIV's next expansion, Evercold , is slated to release in January 2027, and brings with it two new classes and several major changes.

Though it's been nearly a year since that announcement, Ubisoft recently confirmed that the game will not be at its upcoming showcase Ubisoft Forward, stating that the game is "in conception right now."

In a Q&A with producer Jean-Francois Naud and game director Michael McIntyre, Ubisoft said that the remake is in "an early stage" and that players should not expect to hear more about the project this year. Throughout the conversation, the two creatives note that the project is a remake of the game rather than a remaster, with McIntyre saying that games have evolved in the twenty years since its original release. "I do not think a remaster would take enough of those evolutions into account," they say. "I think you need to do a remake in order to truly evolve the game to meet a modern context."

McIntyre also said that Sands Of Time's signature mix of acrobatics, combat, and puzzles are important to the remake's identity. They also said that the team has considered making the Prince's shirt rip more and more over the course of the game, though McIntyre stopped short of confirming it. The director also said that multiple people who are working on the remake were directly inspired to join the game industry by Sands Of Time itself, including one who was studying to be an actuary when they first played it.
