F7 Remake Part 3 enters endgame: director shares 2026 optimism

Square Enix shared a New Year 2026 message from Naoki Hamaguchi, director of Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3, highlighting the trilogy’s progress and platform expansions. Hamaguchi emphasized delivering Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade to Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Se Series X|S on January 22, 2026, as a key step for growing the fan community. The Intergrade edition includes a Streamlined Progression feature to enhance accessibility across new platforms. Hamaguchi views this multi-platform push as vital ahead of the trilogy’s finale, creating broader access for fans worldwide. This aligns with Square Enix’s strategy to maximize the franchise’s reach in 2026. The main scenario for Part 3 stands complete, with the project now in its final development phase. Hamaguchi expressed commitment to honoring the original game’s legacy while advancing the remake’s journey. Recent updates confirm the ending is fully envisioned to delight original and new fans alike. Earlier statements from Hamaguchi note the title for Part 3 is finalized internally, tied to a new thematic keyword like “reunion” and “bonds” in prior entries. The team prioritizes a grand finale distinct from previous games, with “Highwind” as a key element. Development remains unaffected by multi-platform efforts, focusing on quality and scale.
