Will Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth receive any DLC? Well no, but its director has a good reason for it.

Unlike Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Rebirth will not receive any DLC, but it’s not that the director doesn’t do it just because.

Following the release of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, many fans wondered if a DLC announcement was coming considering Remake got some during the wait for the sequel. Well, wonder no more, as in a recent interview with the Daily Star, director Naoki Hamaguchi said that no, there won’t be any DLC, but he took the time to explain why not. “We definitely hear the desire of the fans, the voices that want those kinds of things,” Hamaguchi said of those asking for DLC. “I completely understand, but I think from my perspective, what fans really want to see isn’t necessarily DLC. They want to see the third part of the series as quickly as possible.

“That’s why we’ve decided not to focus development resources on creating additional DLC episodes for the time being. We’re really putting all our efforts into getting the third game out as quickly as possible. So for the moment, that’s where we’re focusing our time.” ” That’s as fair a reason as any!

Remake’s Yuffie DLC worked quite well as a sort of transition between games, and in terms of characters that could get solo outings from Rebirth, there’s Cid and Vincent Valentine, but to be honest, I’m not sure what could be done with the form. , and in the case of the latter, there’s always the possibility that Square Enix is ​​planning a Dirge of Cerberus remaster to Crisis Core: Reunion. Fingers crossed for Dirge fans!

Our own Dom also had a little chat with Hamaguchi earlier this week, specifically about the director’s plans for the minigames in the third and final part, and don’t worry, he’s planning to change a few things.
