Sadly, we didn't see an update from the Final Fantasy VII Remake at Paris Games Week yesterday.

However, all hope is not lost: it's still likely we could see an update for the game drop by the end of the year.

Sony still has one more trick up its sleeve in 2017 - and that's PSX.

The PlayStation Experience takes place in Anaheim, California on December 9 through 11, and tends to offer even more update on PlayStation games.

Anything we were expecting to see at Paris Games Week but that didn't turn up we're likely to catch in December.

So stay tuned for more news then.

Make sure you don’t miss any of the action from Paris Games Week 2017!

We’ve embedded the Twitch stream from the showcase above, where we think there’s going to be some really exciting announcements, including the Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Following the Showcase, we’ll be sure to update the page with any official trailers and added info so you can watch everything over and over again!

We're expecting Sony to announce a lot at the show: you can keep up to date with all the announcements, rumours and speculation on each game's dedicated coverage page, which you can find below:

Paris Games Week 2017: Destiny 2 DLC announcement

Paris Games Week 2017: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds update

Paris Games Week 2017: Detroit: Become Human

Paris Games Week 2017:The Last of Us 2 announcements

Paris Games Week 2017:Shadow of the Colossus remake news

Paris Games Week 2017:Sucker Punch's new project

Paris Games Week 2017: Death Stranding updates

Paris Games Week is finally here and later today Sony will get things started when they lift the curtain with their very own PlayStation Showcase starting at 3pm BST/4pm CET.

The event will not only feature SEVEN "all-new game announcements for PS4 and PS VR," but PlayStation bosses will also be providing "an exclusive new look at the next wave of huge PlayStation titles".

You can watch via YouTube, Twitch, Facebook and a live stream we'll have for you embedded above closer to the time.

You can also follow all the action from our Sony PlayStation Paris Games Week 2017 livestream blog, where PS4, PSVR and PS Vita fans will be hoping to get a better look at all those new games due for release later this year and well into 2018.

As for this page right here, we'll be updating it with information about the Final Fantasy 7 remake, should anything get announced on stage.

While that may seem unlikely, it's worth remembering that fairly recently, game director Tetsuya Nomura hinted at more information in the not too distant future.

In an interview with Japanese magazine Famitsu (via SegmentNext), he stated “important details” on the FF7 Remake would be announced sometime soon.

Having not featured at all during E3 2017 and with new details pretty scarce we can't rule out the possibility of Sony unleashing some sort of update on the state of the game in Paris.

As Sony has themselves admitted, E3 2017 "was only half the story," and with any luck, that other half of the event they've been saving will include some more details related to the magnificent PS1 JRPG.

Whilst we wait, Daily Star has put together everything you need to know about the Final Fantasy 7 remake, just below the jump.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Release Date?

Having first been revealed at Sony's E3 2015 press conference, fans have been waiting patiently for the game to release.

However, it's been hard enough finding any sort of information about the game, let alone the release date.

Back in January 2016, Yoshinori Kitase, the game's producer said that 2017 would be a very important year for the project, but failed to explain why.

The logical conclusion was that Final Fantasy 7 would be celebrating its 20th anniversary.

But so far in 2017, information and 'celebratory' updates have been somewhat lacking, which is why many believe something could yet be revealed at Paris Games Week or potentially PSX in December.

It was also revealed in 2016 that the game would utilise Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4 (think Gears of War), instead of Square Enix’s in-house equivalent

Final Fantasy 7 Remake - Is it Episodic?

There's been some confusion over whether Square Enix would make the game an episodic adventure rather than huge sprawling JRPG many experienced on the PS1.

Speaking earlier this year, Square Enix explained that the game would comprise of multiple, full-sized games instead of a series of smaller episodes.

Which still sounds episodic, but perhaps they'll be more meaty slices of gameplay as opposed to the casual two hours you might get from a Telltale episode.

The revelation was made in the May issue of Game Informer, in which producer Yoshinori Kitase said the development team was using the Final Fantasy XIII series - which consisted of a total of three games - as a template for the remake.

"This reimagined epic will be the next core Final Fantasy instalment--or rather, instalments," Game Informer's writer explained

"When the project was first announced, people were confused by its multi-part nature, but the goal is to structure it more like Final Fantasy XIII than an episodic series."

Stay tuned for more updates on the Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Paris Games Week 2017 all week.
