Square Enix sets April 8, 2027 release for Final Fantasy VII Revelation
Square Enix announced during a Sony State of Play that Final Fantasy VII Revelation, the concluding chapter of its three-part remake trilogy, will launch April 8, 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2 and PC. The game follows 2020's Remake and 2024's Rebirth, wrapping up the retold story from the original 1997 PlayStation title, including the climactic showdown with Sephiroth. Pre-orders are live for PS5, with bonus summon spells and a Premium Edition offering early access, extra items and future DLC.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The trilogy format has stretched a single classic game into a seven-year, multi-console-generation release cycle, testing how long fans will stay invested in one story told across separate full-priced titles. Confirming a 2027 date and simultaneous launch on Switch 2 and Xbox shows Square Enix widening its audience beyond the PlayStation-exclusive rollout of the first two entries. Planned post-launch DLC also signals the franchise's revenue strategy will extend well past this finale.
- Final Fantasy VII Revelation releases April 8, 2027, ending the remake trilogy.
- Unlike earlier entries, it launches simultaneously on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2 and PC.
- Pre-orders and a Premium Edition are available, with story DLC already planned for after launch.
