Two new FF7 Remake screenshots revealed.

Two new images for Final Fantasy 7 Remake have been revealed at MAGIC (Monaco Anime Game International Conferences) 2017.

At the event, Tetsuya Nomura explained that he has put a "lot of attention" into the combat system so that it will occur without interruption, and stated that the development team was having some issues with the grenades. Party members will not take damage from grenades.

In addition, an image of the Scorpion boss was shown. According to Nomura, the scenery will be partly destructible. The director apologized for not being able to show a video, as Square Enix did not allow him to.

Finally, he stated that the menus were not final, and that he will "talk more on another occasion."

It is so weird seeing Japanese Barret as Barret and not as Barett. I guess they either decided to just show what would be either the Western version of the names once again or they simply changed Barret to be Barret.

Also I would appreciate some source link. And the first one reminds me one more of XV.

Here's the original article from Gematsu. They're also up on the official Final Fantasy twitter account.

The first image definitely looks like it's from XV, and that's not a good thing. Unfortunately it looks like there's a cover system.

Why wasn't he allowed a video, I wonder? The way it is phrased implies he could've had one, but was stopped. Maybe the system is still in an early stage of development.

It looks alright. If it has a cover system, it'll probably be soft cover, where it is done mostly on automatic if you draw near cover, or if you approach cover while running. Something like that.

I think this screenshot looks great. There's so much to talk about from just this. For one, this confirms that the game uses a menu system. We haven't seen anything again since the reveal trailer. It's also interesting to see that Magic and Materia are two separate options on the menu. Could this imply on the fly materia changes to suit different battle situations? Also we can see that the game still has an ATB in place, and notice the "Triangle" image next to "LV.1"? Limit Break gauge?! I'm liking what I've seen so far and I'm eager to see more. I expect Nomura wasn't allowed to show a video because of E3 coming up in the next few months. I'd love to see a new story and game play trailer!

Yeah, all the UI stuff will probably get changed around a lot before this game gets released

Of course, but at least we know that all of these elements are still part of the equation

Remember when FFXV had "EX ARTS"?

They were supposed to be limit breaks.

No. Final Fantasy Versus XIII had EX ARTS. I acknowledge the fact that Final Fantasy XV turned out to be a completely different game and yes, for the worse. The game was a disappointment for me, but it never got off to the right start in the first place. The game was announced far too early and they only had the CG to show. They bit off more than they could chew with the FNC and tried to over complicate it, so when they dropped it from the mythos and changed director part way through then it was bound to be a mess. The FFVII Remake won't undergo so much turmoil (hopefully).

This looks horrible. Yeah the graphics are great and that's cute but I really thought this was Call of Duty or something.

Square Enix, I bet I can make better JRPGs than you using RPG Maker.

[fat_moogle]

We haven't seen any proper game play videos yet and you guys are writing it off already. At least give it a chance before troutting all over it

That's what they said about Final Fantasy XIII
