Nearly 40 years on from the very first Final Fantasy game, and four years after his supposedly retiring, the series creator is on the cusp of making a comeback to make one more game - a spiritual successor to Final Fantasy 6.
In an interview with The Verge, Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi discussed his previous game, 2021's Fantasian, which had a PC and console release last month, and how he had initially planned to step back from work for good following its release. However, while he "intended Fantasian to be my final project before I retired," he now plans to finish his career with a game he views as "a successor to Final Fantasy 6."
