Square Enix are going to be holding the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Orchestra World Tour in Japan this weekend (on Saturday, to be more precise), and while it’s going to be an exciting occasion for fans of the game in and of itself, it seems they have some special announcement planned for the occasion as well.
Recently, members of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake development team have been posting messages to Twitter to hype up the concert (which seems like enough of a reason to keep an eye on the event in and of itself). One particular message recently shared by the game’s co-director Motomu Toriyama (translated by @aitaikimochi on Twitter) revealed that Square Enix have “a special programme planned” for the concert as well. “There will be a few things related to Final Fantasy 7 Remake that will be revealed only at this concert,” Toriyama said.
There’s a number of possibilities for what exactly Square Enix could be gearing up to announce this Saturday. The dream pie in the sky scenario would be a sequel being announced, which we know is currently in development. Recent trademark registrations by Square Enix also lend credence to that wish (if only a little).
Meanwhile, Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s PlayStation exclusivity is also ending on April 10, so it’s possible that Square Enix are preparing to bring the game over to PC, and possibly to Xbox as well (though given the fact that the concert is a Japanese event, and the fact that Xbox is far from popular in the region, that seems a little less likely).
Finally, recent rumours have suggested that Final Fantasy 7 Remake will be receiving a PS5 upgrade soon, so maybe that’s something that’s going to be announced.
Either way, we’ll keep you updated on whatever the announcement is, so stay tuned.

Just fyi, it seems that the Square Enix Music official twitter is posting 1 video from the FF7R developers and composers each day leading up to the concert, so they really seem to be hyping this up.
