On Twitter, Chase first mentioned a new project that he was excited about. He also quickly replied to his own tweet, saying that he has run out ofFinal Fantasyjokes. This particular comment led fans to instantly flood the thread with assumptions that Chase may be involved in another project from the RPG series. Most assumed that he will voiceClive, the main protagonist of upcomingFinal Fantasy 16, or that he had auditioned for the role of Zack Fair, for the second installment ofFinal Fantasy 7 Remake.
Chase was quick to deny fans about being Zack forFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, and apologized to fans for the confusion. However, he did not provide any more details about his future project and has remained silent since.
