New details on the release date of Square Enix's"Final Fantasy 7" remake have been revealed. Also, it is revealed that the forthcoming title is set to be episodic.

Square Enix is set to unveil "Final Fantasy 7" remake in 2017, according to Famitsu, as translated by Attack of the Fanboy. In his interview with the publication at the Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3 2016, Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura revealed that the game remake is still in its early phase of development.

Nomura also revealed that it would be quite a while before the game becomes final, a reason why fans and gamers had not heard any new information about the title at the E3 event. With Nomura's details, it is assumed that it is not feasible for Square Enix to release the said title this year, but next year.

Another reason for the delayed release of "Final Fantasy" remake is Square Enix's timeline. According to Ecumenical News, the company might concentrate on its other titles, such as "Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age" and "Kingdom Hearts 3."

In other news, "Final Fantasy 7" remake is set to be episodic, according to Tech Times. As per the publication, it is revealed by the opening parts of the gameplay footage, which was shown at Sony's press conference.

In his interview with Game Spot, "Final Fantasy 7" remake game producer Yoshinori Kitasa revealed that the game is set to be divided into separate games. According to Kitasa, the title would be a full scale game for each part of the multi-part series, adding that there would be a pre-existing story, which would not make sense if it was not covered in a multi-part series.

Overall, Square Enix's "Final Fantasy 7" remake is assumed to released in 2017.
