Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Will Conclude Trilogy, Director Says DLC Would Be Optional Spin‑Offs

Square Enix’s director made the claim to reassure players that the full ending will be contained in the base game and not locked behind paid epilogues.

Overview

  • In early August trilogy director Naoki Hamaguchi told interviews that Final Fantasy 7 Revelation will complete the remake narrative inside the main game and will not require post‑launch DLC to see the ending.
  • Hamaguchi said any future downloadable content would likely be optional, character‑focused spin‑offs similar to the Yuffie episode from Remake rather than essential epilogues that continue the core plot.
  • The director refused to disclose whether Revelation’s ending will match the 1997 original, saying it could be faithful, different, or take an unexpected direction to preserve the player experience.
  • Hamaguchi reported that Remake and Rebirth are selling several times better than expected and that PC sales — including a growing Simplified Chinese market — are an increasingly important factor.
  • He also noted strong development continuity and player influence on design, saying more than 90 percent of the Remake team remain on the project and that feedback prompted changes such as making minigames skippable and adjusting rewards, with Revelation due in spring 2027 on Switch 2, PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
