It's due out this year - that isn't nearly enough time to finish a complete remake of what is a pretty massive game.
My guess is that this is more of a Stranger's Wrath sort of "remake" - same basic engine, but the characters have been remodeled and animated, textures improved, etc. That's why doing this would be feasible over, say, remaking a PSone game - most of is already there, and it just need polishing.
...And, yeah, it better be the International Edition. Although I wouldn't be surprised if they made that DLC or something.
