On the other hand, Square Enix took the opportunity to announce that this second installment will not be the last either, but it will finally be a trilogy. A news that although it has not finished being to the liking of many, it is accompanied by a small nostalgic factor, with many fans having highlighted the fact that they need three albums again for this adventure.
Although Square Enix has not wanted to go into detail about the exact content or how far we can go within the original plot, as Tetsuya Nomura himself, creative director of the saga, has shared, this game has only been designed to offer a duration equivalent to that of a full gamebut it will even be perfectly playable for those who have not played the first part of this new trilogy.
