Final Fantasy VII Revelation was announced at Summer Game Fest 2026 on June 5, confirming the end date and scope of the remake trilogy. The game is set for a simultaneous multiplatform release in spring 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. Series director Naoki Hamaguchi appeared on stage and said the theme of the title is "resolve," as Cloud and his companions prepare for their final battle against Sephiroth.
The reveal trailer showed a seamless open world, with the airship Highwind allowing players to fly across the map and parachute down to destinations. New playable characters include Vincent Valentine and Cid Highwind. A new "WEAR" system lets characters change outfits to alter combat styles, with names like "Warrior" and "Black Mage" drawn from the Final Fantasy series. The game introduces new areas Mideel and Wutai, and the giant planet guardian Weapon will appear as an enemy. Producer Yoshinori Kitase, director Naoki Hamaguchi, and creative director Tetsuya Nomura each released statements about the project.
At gamescom Opening Night Live 2026, a second trailer, "Guardian of the Star," showed the planet's guardian Weapon, the summon Typhon, and a chocobo named Pico. The trailer also gave the first in-game look at Ruby Weapon, Emerald Weapon, and Ultima Weapon as major set-piece battles. New cutscenes featured Vincent and Cid. A separate Microsoft Store page lists a provisional ESRB rating of "Likely Mature 17+," which sparked fan speculation, though the rating remains under review and previous entries were rated Teen.
