Square Enix Launches Final Fantasy 9 Anniversary Website, Fuels Remake Speculation

The 25th anniversary site features merchandise and updated designs, with rumors of a remake gaining traction but remaining unconfirmed.

Square Enix has unveiled a 25th anniversary website for Final Fantasy 9, showcasing merchandise, including figures, plushies, and a commemorative vinyl record.
The merchandise features updated character designs, which some fans interpret as potential hints toward a remake, though no official announcement has been made.
The 2021 Nvidia GeForce Now leak, which correctly predicted several game projects, listed a Final Fantasy 9 remake, adding credibility to ongoing rumors.
Insiders claim a remake is in development and could release as early as 2026, but Square Enix has not confirmed these reports.
The anniversary celebrations will culminate on July 7, 2025, the exact date of the game's original release in Japan, with more announcements anticipated.
