[QUOTE="Admin, post: 65559, member: 1"] Sorry, Final Fantasy sickos. Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth isn't getting any major story DLC akin to Remake's Intergrade expansion, according to game director Naoki Hamaguchi. In an [URL='https://www.dailystar.co.uk/tech/gaming/final-fantasy-7-rebirth-wont-34152228']interview with The Daily Star[/URL], Hamaguchi gently denied fan hopes of an intermediary chapter between Rebirth and the next game. Final Fantasy 7: Remake received such a chapter with "Intermission," which included a new story featuring Yuffie. "We definitely do hear the desire from fans, the voices out there that want that kind of thing," he said. "I understand it completely, but I think, from my perspective, what the fans really want to see the most is not necessarily DLC. They want to see the third part of the series as quickly as possible."
