Square Enix has officially announced the third and final game in its Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy: Final Fantasy VII Revelation. It will release on multiple platforms simultaneously — PC, PS5, Xbox Series X / S, and Nintendo Switch 2 — in spring 2027.

In footage shown onstage at Summer Game Fest Live 2026, there was a lot to take in: You’ll get to fly the Highwind airship (and jump off it to land in the game’s open world), play as Vincent and Cid in battle (who weren’t playable in Rebirth), challenge the gigantic Weapons, and visit places from the original game, like Wutai. You’ll also get to dress up your characters with special armors that can change their stats and their look, in what Vincent voice actor Matt Mercer jokingly called the “fit” system.

Here is Square Enix’s description of the game, from its trailer:

As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins. A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet’s fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion.

In the final chapter of the FINAL FANTASY VII remake project, the scale has never been larger and the stakes have never been higher. Take to the skies and explore a boundless world, fight alongside a fully assembled party, master strategic and dynamic combat, and prepare yourself for the climactic finale.

A vast planet awaits. Everything leads here.

Here’s another trailer that’s in Japanese with more footage. This was shown in English at the event, but I haven’t found that yet. I’ll update this story when I have it.

Revelation will conclude a yearslong saga that, so far, has actually turned out pretty well. Final Fantasy VII Remake was a thrilling, thoughtful take on the original that focused on the Midgar portion of the FFVII story. Four years later, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth let Cloud Strife and friends explore a big open world and also added the excellent Queen’s Blood in-game card game.

Oh, and one detail that fans of the remake trilogy may or may not be happy about for the third game in the series: Chadley, the strange, humanlike cyborg, will be back.
