For those among you who have been eager to know more about how the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Project is coming along at Square Enix, a recent tweet from none other than the game’s director, Naoki Hamaguchi, might be music to your ears.
Along with a release date for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on the Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox (as announced at the recent Partner Showcase), Hamaguchi also promised more news, potentially ending a long period of relative silence about how things were shaping up for the highly anticipated sequel to Rebirth.
“This year, we plan to share more updates on the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Project than ever before. We look forward to celebrating together with even more players around the world.”
Since Rebirth is making its Switch 2 and Xbox debut on June 3, 2026, it seems feasible to expect updates on Part 3 later this year. Of course, with no timeline explicitly offered up by Hamguchi, that could very well vary.
With fans eager to resolve the cliffhanger that it ended on, news – and possibly a reveal – is going to be most welcome, and could potentially end speculation about the new game’s title. It might be hard to outdo the top-notch experience on offer in Rebirth, but Square Enix is sure to be on top of its game with this one. Even Hamaguchi has expressed confidence in it himself.
