Some "Final Fantasy" fans got upset after Square Enix revealed that its highly-anticipated "Final Fantasy VII Remake" will be released as a multi-part series. The gaming studio has already explained its reason behind the unusual format, but now producer Yoshinori Kitase has gone into further detail regarding the company's plans.

In a post on Square Enix's official blog site over the weekend, Kitase indicated that it's high time for the original game to be updated and "Remake" will do just that. The game expands the story, world and experience of "Final Fantasy VII." All these added content can't possibly be jam-packed into one standalone game.

Kitase also clarified that the company wanted to announce the format sooner rather later so that fans can already anticipate how the game will eventually play out.

Square Enix has often indicated that remaking "Final Fantasy VII" would be a massive undertaking, both technically and financially. Kitase reiterated that it's not just the game the company is recreating, but also the feeling of density of the original 1997 RPG.

Kitase said the company is aware of the comments and reactions from fans, and many were correct in speculating why "Remake" would be a multi-part series. He explained that in order to fit everything into one installment, some key narratives and gameplay would need to be chopped off, resulting to a condensed and rushed version of "Final Fantasy VII."

Square Enix also revealed recently that "Remake"will feature the iconic Cloud cross-dressing scene from the original game.

In an interview with Famitsu, with translation from Siliconera, game director Tetsuya Nomura confirmed the inclusion of the famous scene, but its design is still in development.

Considering Cloud has not yet cross-dressed in a full motion video, Square Enix has plenty of room to experiment and get creative with the scene's design. The original game also had multiple dress combinations for Cloud, including tiaras and makeup. "Remake" might feature an even wider range of outfits for Cloud, depending on how well the player performs the prior mission.

Regarding other changes, Nomura previously announced that combat and exploration mechanics have been revised.

"We're not going to be changing it into a shooter or something like that," Nomura told the Official PlayStation Magazine, courtesy of GamesRadar. "We are going to be bringing dramatic changes, but we want to make sure it's still recognizable."

"Final Fantasy VII Remake" will be launched as a PlayStation 4 timed-exclusive, but there's still no word about its exact release date.
