Two big Final Fantasy remakes are reportedly still in ‘active development’ [FFIX]
A Final Fantasy 9 remake is still in development, alongside a remake of Final Fantasy Tactics.

I feel like these two don't really need remaking, do they? VII was an obvious choice since it - as the first 3D iteration - aged horribly. I feel like IX still holds up, and the pixel art style of FFT doesn't really age.
The moguri mod fixes some of the biggest issues with 9 and upscales the backgrounds. That's our remaster right there.
I tried ff7r at a friend's, and if they do to ff9's battle system what they did with ff7r, I'm never buying another Final Fantasy game again. IX could maybe do with a bit of a graphical touch up, it still looks pretty good on my vita, but on my TV in the living room it's looking a bit muddy. Just a new shader or AA overlay and ported to lin/Mac/win, don't fuck with the actual mechanics or systems, or make it into 17 separately purchased chapters at £100 each....you fucking cunts....
I mean based on 15,16 and 7R+ - this is what FF is now.
Yep, absolute trash.
I'd be very surprised if Tactics is getting a full remake; this is likely more of a case of "remake/remaster" tending to be interchangeable terms in video game media and casual gaming discussion.
I'd expect to see something like the Tactics Ogre Reborn treatment. Final Fantasy Tactics desperately needs an orchestrated soundtrack like that project's.
