The development of the third installment of the Final Fantasy VII Remake Project is on track. Director Naoki Hamaguchi and producer Yoshinori Kitase provided some updates about the game’s progress and story in a recent interview.
Naoki Hamaguchi said they started working on the third game right after finishing Final Fantasy VII Rebirth in early 2024. He confidently shared that things were proceeding smoothly:
“It is going very well. After FF7 Rebirth was finished, we immediately started working on the third game, and by the end of 2024, we had completed a build that was able to confirm what we should aim for as a game. We can already see the direction where we want to land, so we have been working towards that since the beginning of this year. We are proceeding without delay from the schedule we planned when we started the Remake Project, so we hope you will look forward to it.”
Hamaguchi mentioned that the project has been in development for about nine months and is guided by a clear vision.
Yoshinori Kitase also shared some good news about the game’s story. Tetsuya Nomura had finished the scenario for the third installment by the end of 2024. Kitase expressed his approval of Nomura’s work:
“As the next part is the conclusion, I gave Nomura the task to create something that respects the original and also gives a sense of satisfaction beyond what could be experienced in the original, something that would conclude the Remake Project. That was finally handed in at the end of the year, and the scenario for the third installment was then completed. I am very satisfied with it, so I am sure it will be a satisfying conclusion for fans as well.”
Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 has not yet been officially announced. However, recent updates suggest that fans can expect a reveal soon. Stay tuned for more information as the trilogy approaches its conclusion.
