Re: Panzer Dragoon: Remake Publisher Signs Deal With Square Enix To 'Release Several Remakes'

Wakkawipeout

Legacy of Kain. Square Enix already remakes Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest games on a regular basis. Even the Mana series has been getting the remake treatment. I doubt they'd outsource a remake of Chrono Trigger or something similarly huge much less agree to splitting the profits 50/50. And based on Forever Entertainments work on the Panzer Dragoon Remake and upcoming Zwei Remake, I'd guess they'll be remaking another 3D franchise.

So my guess Legacy of Kain. There's enough games in the series to fit the multiple projects description. The earlier LoK games were also late 90s 3D games. Forever could use everything they learned working on Panzer Dragoon and apply it here. Plus it's a dormant franchise that presents a low risk investment for Square Enix. They don't have to spend anything on the development-side and they can use these remakes to guage interest in a new installment.

If Forever does a bang up job, they'll put themselves into the perfect position to make a new Legacy of Kain game WITH Square Enix fitting the bill on development. At the very least, this would open up more opportunities to remake other neglected Square Enix games.

Or I could be completely off and we're gonna get Compilation of Final Fantasy VII remakes out the wazoo.
