Final Fantasy 7: Revelation Release Date Confirmed

The update

Square Enix has officially announced the release date for Final Fantasy 7: Revelation, concluding its acclaimed remake trilogy. The final chapter will arrive on April 8, 2027, simultaneously across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC platforms via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Why it matters

This release date confirmation marks the culmination of a decade-long project that has reimagined one of gaming’s most beloved franchises. Revelation introduces significant gameplay innovations, including the Function-Integrated Tactical Suitwear (FITS) system that gives each character four unique combat roles tied to different outfits. The game expands into a more open-world experience, allowing players to parachute from the Highwind airship into locations like Wutai and switch between party members dynamically, with cutscenes and quests changing based on the character being controlled.

What to watch

Following the main release, two story expansions are planned over the next 12 months: Story DLC 1: Sephiroth and Story DLC 2: Vincent & the Turks. Pricing details for these expansions remain unconfirmed. The game will also feature the return of the Queen’s Blood card game with an extended questline centered around Red XIII.
