Release Date Predictions
Square Enix has yet to announce a release date, or even a release window, for Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3. However, based on developer comments, we can speculate. Game director Naoki Hamaguchi, in a G-Star panel reported by 4Gamer, confirmed the game’s plot and core concepts are finalized, and the team is now focused on development. This is further reinforced by an interview with Daily Star, where Hamaguchi stated there would be no DLC for Rebirth, with all efforts directed towards Part 3.
Considering Final Fantasy VII Remake launched in 2020 and Rebirth in 2024, a 2027 release for Part 3 seems optimistic, assuming no significant hardware transitions.

Building upon the refined combat system of Rebirth, Part 3 is expected to further enhance the series’ satisfying gameplay. While new features are anticipated, the inclusion of Vincent and Cid as playable party members will be a significant addition.
Hamaguchi, in a Daily Star interview, expressed satisfaction with Rebirth‘s structure and balance, suggesting no major overhauls are planned. However, he acknowledged player feedback regarding the number of minigames, indicating a potential reduction in Part 3.
Additionally, Hamaguchi confirmed in the G-Star panel the intention to provide unrestricted world exploration via airship, stating, “We will not cheat with the airship system (in Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3), but take the challenge head-on so that it can freely fly all over the game map.” This leaves the submarine, another mode of traversal from the original game, as a potential feature yet to be addressed.
