Square-Enix is ​​hoping to release the third and final entry in the Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy in three years, as it has been revealed that the main story of the third game is complete and voice recording could begin soon.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy Will Be Done By 2027?

Interviews published in a recently released book titled Final Fantasy 7 Remake Ultimania include the above information from creative director Tetsuya Nomura. He also teased something new and important that didn’t originally appear in the 1997 version would be coming, after being suggested by series producer Yoshinori Kitase.

Staff retention between Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was high, which meant there wasn’t an agonizingly long wait (by Square-Enix standards, anyway) between the 2020 and 2024 titles rather than the impact of the pandemic at that time. . Square-Enix even managed to slip in a DLC expansion between the two.

The same high retention will be in place for Part 3, and in a smoother environment with a lot already done, we could very well see Final Fantasy Remake Part 3 by 2027, which happens to be the original game’s 30th anniversary year (which makes me feel horribly old to think about).

Fans of the first two installments will likely find it worth the wait when it arrives, since Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth impressed gamers and critics alike.
