My bad, I heard the rumor mill a few weeks back but SE says they're not doing it 😞

They say it'd be too much of an undertaking, cost and time-wise.

The IGN article I just read also mentions FF6 (as an example) would take 20 years to remake, and I'm wondering how that would compare to FF8 if it was even on the table. (https://www.ign.com/articles/final-fantasy-8-director-would-change-the-combat-system-in-a-remake)
