  • Square Enix has announced in recent interviews that the third title in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy is progressing smoothly as its story has been completed.
  • Additionally, Square Enix has implied that Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 may be released on multiple platforms as part of its multi-platform strategy and include extra features like New Game Plus.
  • Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PC port is now available to purchase on Steam.

After many long months, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has finally come to PC as it launched today on Steam. To mark the occasion, Square Enix was recently interviewed by several publishing outlets including Famitsu and 4Gamer on the state of the third and final game in its critically-acclaimed Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy.

For starters, Square Enix has confirmed to Famitsu (as reported and translated by Eurogamer) that it has completed writing the plot for the third game and that development for the game overall is progressing without delay. However, no release date for the third game has been announced as of yet.

Then Square Enix went on to state that it is considering extra features for the third game like New Game Plus.

In an interview with 4gamer (translated by @Genki_JPN), Square Enix implies that Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 may not be a PlayStation-exclusive title at launch like its predecessors were due to the company's new modus operandi of releasing games on multiple platforms. Nonetheless, Square Enix says it makes no promises that it could launch on multiple platforms but it will try its best.
