'Final Fantasy 7 Remake' Release Date, News: First Boss Battle and More Teased in New Screenshots
Square Enix treated fans with new screenshots for the highly anticipated "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" at the Monaco Anime Game International Conferences (MAGIC) 2017.
Game director Tetsuya Nomura personally showcased the images and provided insight into what is happening in the screenshots. The first one, as seen above, shows a bit of the interface.
There was a slot for Magic, Materia, Attack and Item. The "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" as seen in this screenshot looks amazing already.

However, since the development for the "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" is still well underway, this might not be its final form.
On the other hand, Kotaku pointed out how Cloud and Barret appear to have hit points north of a thousand. There is no way of knowing as to why this is the case.
Explaining the image, Nomura told Gameblog.fr (translation by Gematsu), "I've put a lot of attention into the combat system, and it's going to happen without interruption. In meetings, we've had a lot of problems with the grenades."
The second "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" screenshot shown off at MAGIC 2017 features the first boss battle in the game. Cloud and Barret can be seen giving the baddie a run for its money.
"It's a Scorpion, and the scenery will be partly destructible. Sorry, I asked to show a video, but the company refused. The menus are not yet final, but I will talk more on another occasion," Nomura explained.
The game director had nothing more to say outside of what the screenshots show. As Square Enix said in the past, "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" will not arrive anytime soon so the developer will not have a lot to showcase at the moment.
In a recent Famitsu interview (translated by Siliconera), "Final Fantasy 7 Remake" producer Yoshinori Kitase said that it will be a while before the game sees the light of day.
"We're currently brushing up the scene from the announcement trailer. We can now see the line of quality that we're aiming for more clearly, but there's still a ways to go," he explained.
