Director and Concept Designer Tetsuya Nomura, along with other developers, reflected on the game’s development leading up to the March 3, 2020 release. Additionally, Nomura ended his write-up saying they are working on the sequel title to FFVII Remake:

“We’ve already begun working on the next one as well, but I’m confident that playing through this title will expand your expectations just like the world that extends beyond Midgar.”

As far as the redesigned combat, Battle Director Teruki Endo had this to say:

“Production was completely different than that of a pure action game, and the need for new design philosophy often arose. Production involved constantly searching for the best balance between action and command elements, but I believe we’ve managed to do this in an exciting new way.”
