FINAL FANTASY 7 Remake Part 3 Coming Sooner

Apr 14, 2024 3:26 PM

Fans of the beloved Final Fantasy 7 Remake series have reason to be excited, as Square Enix hints that the final installment, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Part 3, may arrive sooner than expected. Following the pattern of its predecessors, the game's production could wrap up in a shorter period, with speculation about a potential 2027 release date. This anticipation is spurred by the producer Yoshinori Kitase's comments on a potential three-year development cycle, mirroring that of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, which was completed within three years – a year of that dedicated to DLC development.

The game is expected to bring back familiar maps with fresh additions, including a teased snowboarding mini-game which aligns with the original's narrative. Creative director Tetsuya Nomura suggested that voice recording sessions might commence soon. Moreover, an intriguing new element, not present in the original game, has been hinted at—something that could greatly please fans if executed well. The consistency in the development team has also been highlighted as a positive factor in the game's ongoing production.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has been met with positive reviews, building on the success of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Enthusiasm for the third part's arrival is high, with the community waiting to see how Square Enix will conclude the epic saga.

When is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Part 3 expected to release?

While Square Enix has not set a formal release date for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Part 3, the game's production is suggested to follow a similar three-year period as Rebirth, potentially pointing to a release around 2027.

Final Fantasy VII, first released in 1997 by Square Enix (then Squaresoft), is one of the most iconic games in the RPG genre, renowned for its compelling narrative and memorable characters. The game was revolutionary for its time, with stunning 3D graphics and full-motion videos. The remake series has been an ambitious project to revitalize the original story for modern platforms, complete with updated gameplay mechanics, overhauled graphics, and extended storylines. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the second installment of a trilogy, remaking the canonical classic to a new generation of gamers while adhering to the legacy and essence that have captivated players for over two decades.
