As hype builds for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, Remake and Rebirth continue to sell well
Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth are experiencing unexpected sales success following the Summer Game Fest 2026 reveal of Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, according to trilogy director Naoki Hamaguchi. The two existing games are performing “several times better” than expected, with Hamaguchi noting they’re “performing even better than most people probably imagine.”
Hamaguchi highlighted an interconnected pattern of interest within the franchise, where announcements of new entries drive sales across the series. He noted that when Rebirth was announced, Remake’s sales increased as a result. He anticipates the same effect from Revelation’s reveal, predicting it will generate increased interest in Rebirth. Square Enix’s investor relations policy prevents disclosure of specific sales figures, though Hamaguchi’s comments suggest the trilogy is outperforming industry expectations significantly.
The strong commercial performance of Remake and Rebirth demonstrates the franchise’s enduring appeal and suggests positive momentum heading into Revelation’s release, with each announcement creating a cycle of renewed interest that boosts sales across multiple entries.
