To cap off today’s stacked Summer Game Fest 2026 showcase, host Geoff Keighley invited Square Enix’s Naomi Hamaguchi to introduce a title that fans have been long waiting to see for the first time – the final part of the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, titled Final Fantasy VII Revelation.
And it’s not all that far off, due to launch in US “Spring” 2027, or our “Autumn” here in Australia, so between March and May. Better yet, this time around the game will be launching on all platforms simultaneously – PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2 and PC – no doubt possible due to Square’s ongoing work in porting the previous two games to all of the above.
Multiple new looks at the game were shown off during the presentation, with Matt Mercer even joining the crew on-stage to talk about his character in the game, Vincent Valentine, who is finally now a playable party member. The team is promising the biggest and most explorable world yet, with players able to navigate everywhere using the Highwind airship and (literally) drop down to the world below as they see fit. The reveal gives us the first glimpses at familiar locations like Wutai, Mideel and the Northern Continent.
Players will also be able to control Cid Highwind, and make use of a brand-new job system (called FITS) that allows players to don different outfits to augment their moveset based on familiar roles, like Warrior or Black Mage.
There’s a whole lot more to see, so check out all of the new trailers below:
From the Square Enix newsroom:
“FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right. The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title; and yet, as the developer, our hands alone cannot turn its final page. It’s only when you, the player, step inside and memorialize this journey that a new “legend” is finally born. We hope you witness the coming together of our hearts, and yours.” –Yoshinori Kitase, Producer
“I’m beyond excited to announce FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION, launching simultaneously across all platforms in Spring 2027. I’m truly grateful to our fans who believed in this story and supported us for so many years. In this title, centered around “resolve,” Cloud and his companions will confront their respective convictions and continue their journey towards the final battle that will determine the planet’s fate. All the stories and emotions accumulated over the years will culminate in the most satisfying way with this experience, brought to you as the series’ final chapter. Please look forward to it.” – Naoki Hamaguchi, Director
“As creators, we have carefully built and nurtured the FINAL FANTASY VII series over many years, expanding it through numerous spin-off titles along the way. Over time, we believe each fan has developed their own unique interpretation of the story, and our goal has been to bring all of these FINAL FANTASY VII stories together so that they ultimately converge in the final chapter of the Remake Series. While there may be a mix of excitement and uncertainty, we are confident that this journey will remain an unforgettable experience for years to come. Thank you sincerely for joining us and being part of this journey over so many years.” – Tetsuya Nomura, Creative Director
