Square Enix is gearing up to reveal the third and final chapter of its Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy. Speaking to Comicbook as part of a broader media push this week, director Naoki Hamaguchi confirmed that preparations for the Part 3 reveal are actively underway, describing the process as going 'steadily.'

The interviews come at a busy moment for the studio, which is currently focused on bringing Final Fantasy VII Rebirth to Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. Most of the developer conversation this week has centered on the technical challenges of porting the PS5 title to those platforms, but Hamaguchi made clear that the team isn't entirely heads-down on ports.

The third entry will close out the remake project that kicked off with Final Fantasy VII Remake in 2020 and continued with Rebirth in 2024. With Rebirth expanding significantly on the Midgar section of the original game and taking Cloud and crew through a massive open-world journey, expectations for Part 3 are understandably sky-high, especially given where Rebirth's ending left things.

Square Enix has been tight-lipped about the final installment beyond acknowledging it's in development. A formal reveal feels increasingly close, though, given the studio's recent pattern of using platform expansion press cycles to drop breadcrumbs about what comes next.

According to Push Square, which covered the interview, Hamaguchi's comments suggest the reveal isn't imminent but is being deliberately built toward. Fans who've been patiently waiting since Rebirth's launch last year will want to keep an eye on Square Enix's upcoming showcase schedule.
