AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Square Enix revealed Final Fantasy 7 Revelation as the final part of the remake trilogy, launching simultaneously on PC and consoles in spring 2027 with day-one parity.
Square Enix has officially pulled back the curtain on Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, the final installment of the massive action RPG remake trilogy. Revealed during Summer Game Fest and reported by Rock Paper Shotgun, the game is scheduled to launch across all major platforms, including PC, in spring 2027. In a refreshing change of pace for the franchise, PC players will not have to wait months or years for a delayed port this time around. The community can jump into the closing act of Cloud Strife's journey alongside console players on day one, meaning everyone gets to participate in the inevitable internet discussions at the exact same time.
The new trailer showcased the return of Vincent Valentine and Cid Highwind as playable characters, rounding out the party alongside Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Red XIII, Yuffie, and Cait Sith as they attempt to stop Sephiroth and avert an apocalyptic meteor. Revelation is also introducing a surprising traversal mechanic that borrows a page from the battle royale playbook. Players will pilot the iconic Highwind airship to explore the planet freely, dropping in via parachute anywhere on the map to seamlessly transition from air to land. Director Naoki Hamaguchi promises that the finale will bring years of storytelling and emotional buildup to a satisfying close.
The scope of the finale expands significantly with new playable regions like the Mideel archipelago, Wutai, and the Northern Continent. Vincent brings his signature nimble gunslinger combat style, while Cid utilizes polearm strikes for heavy single-target damage and wide area-of-effect sweeps. As players navigate branching decisions that can impact character stories, they will once again utilize the hybrid battle system that blends real-time action with Tactical Mode. It is a massive undertaking for Square Enix, and the simultaneous multi-platform release ensures the entire gaming community can rally around the conclusion of this multi-year saga together.
