As with other sections of FFVII Remake, the Honeybee Inn and Wall Market areas were approached based on a central idea.
Final Fantasy VII Remake‘s development team did a lot of work to remake Wall Market, but a song-and-dance took the most work of all.
When remaking the Honeybee Inn for FFVII Remake, the team decided from the beginning to reframe the establishment.
In Final Fantasy VII, the Honeybee Inn was clearly a brothel, but for Remake, the team opted to recast the location as more of a cabaret, with a focus on “maximum showbusiness”.
