There's a petition flying around the net for the remake of FFVII and has received almost 14,000 signatures. The rumor of FFVII being remade started when SquareEnix showed a tech demo running for the PS3 but so far, there are no confirmation that it is, in fact, under development.
Final Fantasy VII 1997 exceeds 15.5 million units sold worldwide as of February 2026, reinforcing its legacy as the series best selling title.
I’d love to know how many units have been sold of all the Final Fantasy VII franchise games, including the original, the remakes, spin offs such as Crisis Core, and mobile games Ever Crisis. I bet a fair few copies.
Modern day publisher be like: "Failed to meet sales expectations. Pivoting to live service."
It's an absolute legend of a game. And I honestly really love how the remake trilogy is shaping up so far.
Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most iconic video games of all time, with it helping to changed the RPG landscape when it was released in 1997.
If you already own it... There, I saved you the click on a deliberately misleading article.
I bought the game yesterday on steam for $4 because Square Enix is trying to replace it with a version that has no mod support.
Prior to yesterday, I had no idea the game had so many great mods until people started making a fuss out of it.
u get the switch 1 version of the og ff7 for free if you own 7 remake for the switch 2.
lol.
But BG2 didn't emerge in a vacuum, and in a recent chat with Slandered Gaming it emerged that—while we can thank BG2 for a lot of our favourite RPGs since—we have a whole other game to thank for BG2. That'd be Final Fantasy 7, which lit a fire under BG2 director James Ohlen to go all out with the game's structure and companions, per Trent Oster—who worked on the original Baldur's Gate and has since become CEO of Beamdog, the studio behind the BG1 and BG2 Enhanced Editions.
Baldurs Gate 1&2 were my games back in the day on PC. Icewindale and Neverwinter Nights as well
I just signed. I thought I might share this with my fellow FFVII fans out there who weren't aware about this like me.
Final Fantasy VII although maybe not the best in the series(arguably), its the game that I became extremely attached to as a kid. When I hear the theme songs played of it can make me sad, or send chills down my spine. This would be an amazing remake if they ever did it.
I mean come on. What is a petition going to do really. Square Enix already knows about a hundred times over that people want a FFVII remake. They'll make it when they want or if ever.
If they remake this classic.
This would sell a TON of ps3s. FFVII is in my opinion the best final fantasy ever. The materia system rocked, the story was amazing and sephiroth was just cool as hell. How can you not like a guy whos special move is to destroy the universe? Sure it took like 5 minutes but i never got tired of watching it.
