At the Mobius Final Fantasy livestream, it was revealed that the project lead for Mobius Final Fantasy, Naoki Hamaguchi, will be taking a lead role in the development side of Final Fantasy 7. Furthermore, Hamaguchi expressed that he will not leave the Mobius team.
The rationale behind the decision centered around Square emphasizing a stable production schedule, as well as having complete control over the vision and direction of the FF7 Remake. Hamaguchi said:
Although a trailer for the FF7 Remake was released in 2015 and new screenshots of the game were released earlier this year, Square has note yet revealed a release date for the game.
