Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Director Confirms Trilogy Ends With Main Game

Final Fantasy 7 Revision director Naoki Hamaguchi has confirmed that the remake trilogy will reach its proper conclusion within the main game’s release in 2027, with no DLC required to complete the story. Speaking to Automaton Media, Hamaguchi acknowledged player expectations surrounding potential post-launch content but stressed his commitment to delivering a complete ending at launch. The reassurance addresses concerns common in modern gaming, where narrative conclusions are sometimes reserved for paid expansions.

Hamaguchi has been vocal about his intentions to move on from the Final Fantasy 7 remake project following Revelation’s release. While the director acknowledged that players anticipate DLC announcements and understand the modern industry’s reliance on post-launch content, he made clear that Square Enix’s approach to this finale will differ from that model. The confirmation represents significant closure for fans who have invested years in the remake trilogy’s extended narrative arc.

Reveal remains scheduled for 2027, marking the culmination of Square Enix’s ambitious remake series that began with the 2020 release of Final Fantasy 7 Remake. The trilogy’s completion will bring an end to what has become an extended reimagining of the 1997 PlayStation classic, expanding and recontextualizing the original story across multiple releases.
