I want to expand Queen\u2019s Blood, improve it, and present a more powerful version in the third part\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p> Naoki Hamaguchi\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> Queen\u2019s Blood is a collectible strategic card game that first appeared in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. After the game\u2019s release in February 2024 on PlayStation 5, interest in the mini-game turned out to be so high that players repeatedly called on Square Enix to turn it into a standalone project. Hamaguchi did not disclose details, but his comments make it clear that Queen\u2019s Blood will become one step closer to the &#8220;game within a game&#8221; format. <\/p>\n<p> In addition, the game director confirmed the return of snowboarding from the original Final Fantasy VII. In the third part of the remakes, this element will not just be a separate mini-game, but a part of the narrative. <\/p>\n<p>\u00abI\u2019m afraid I can\u2019t go into details, but we understand that this will not just be a snowboarding mini-game. We want to integrate it into the plot to create a connection with the theme of the game\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p> Naoki Hamaguchi\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> The official release date for the third part of the Final Fantasy VII remakes has not yet been announced. According to Hamaguchi, the project is already in a playable state, but still requires additional refinement. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u041d\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0441\u0442\u0438 0 \u0418\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0447\u043d\u0438\u043a: Square Enix 23 minutes ago Developers noted high player interest in one of the mini-games.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":111758,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,63,122,124,123],"class_list":{"0":"post-111757","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-queens","8":"tag-new-york","9":"tag-new-york-city","10":"tag-nyc","11":"tag-queens","12":"tag-queens-headlines","13":"tag-queens-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=111757"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111757\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=111757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=111757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=111757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
