Square Enix has recently put up a new job listing, seeking level planners for Final Fantasy VII Remake. The recruitment message offers information on the role’s requirements as well as a progress update on the game’s development.

View the highlights of the job listing below:

A major project of fully remaking Final Fantasy VII on PlayStation 4.

Can work in the best development environment!

Gain experience in a flat organization, use your talents to your heart’s content.

Recruiting core members for the project!

Enjoy flexibility with discretionary work system and good benefits.

As level planner for the game, you’ll be responsible for organizing the workflow of location development, create and produce level designs for each assigned location, and implement data utilizing Unreal Engine 4.

On the current state of the project, Square Enix wrote:

“While Final Fantasy VII Remake’s programs for general functions and contents are being tested within the development team as required, the part about reproducing the original work in high-quality graphics is reaching a satisfactory standard, and we’ve come to the conclusion that in order to meet fan expectations we must increase its quality another step higher.

“Therefore, in addition to the current members for the Final Fantasy VII Remake development, we must establish a core group that includes level planners, battle planners, designers, engineers, and various types of jobs to tackle on the production of the big title.

“We expect those of you who apply for this position to become an active core member.”

The company stresses that the job recruitment is by no means a request for last-minute replacements for dealing with work volume. As it stands, the development team are currently in the brainstorming phase of creating a world of Final Fantasy VII fitting for modern times. Square Enix hopes to add members that can work on various levels within the game and come up with ideas for what they’d like to do with the remake’s charming characters.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is currently in development for PlayStation 4.
