According to new information from interviews published on the Final Fantasy VII Remake Ultimania Book, as translated by @aitaikimochi, the story for the third part of the Final Fantasy VII Remake “has already been completed.” Additionally, “Nomura thinks they will perhaps start voice recording in the near future.” Producer Yoshinori Kitase also stated that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth was completed within three years of development and he hopes that the schedule will remain the same for Part 3 as well. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is available now for PlayStation 5.
The full tweet:
FF7 Remake Part 3 main story has already been completed, and Nomura thinks they will perhaps start voice recording in the near future.
He remarks that Kitase proposed an idea to him about “something” very important to include, even though it wasn’t in the original game, and Nomura is pondering how to deliver. He thinks it will surely make people happy if they can do it well.
Kitase hopes to deliver an amazing product for Part 3 without having to sacrifice quality over time. He says the reason why FF7 Rebirth was such an efficient development period was because they retained the same staff as the previous installment, and Part 3 will also have the same team.
Kitase mentions FF7 Rebirth was actually done within 3 years since about one year was developing the DLC, and he hopes to be able to stick with that schedule for Part 3 too.
The game’s details:
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the second entry in the Final Fantasy VII remake project, which retells the story of the iconic fantasy game that redefined the RPG genre in three distinct games.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth picks up with iconic heroes Cloud, Barret, Tifa, Aerith and Red XIII after they escape from the dystopian city Midgar and sees them embark on a journey in pursuit of Sephiroth, the vengeful swordsman from Cloud’s past who was thought to be dead.
In this standalone adventure, players will explore an expansive world, all brought to life with a new level of graphical fidelity, developed specifically to leverage the power of the PlayStation 5 console.
As players unravel a gripping narrative rich with mysteries to uncover, they will also witness the personal journey of each party member and strengthen their bonds to work together and face off against powerful enemies.
