Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Gets April 2027 Release Date and Multiplatform Launch
Square Enix has nailed down a release date for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation: April 8, 2027. The publisher confirmed the date during Sony's PlayStation State of Play live stream on September 3, 2026, alongside the world premiere of gameplay footage (VGC).
Revelation is the third and final instalment in the FF7 remake trilogy — a project that began reimagining the 1997 PlayStation original in modern, high-budget form. Square Enix's official game page describes it as the final battle to decide the fate of the world, with players taking to the skies alongside their companions against Sephiroth, the trilogy's recurring antagonist.
Game director Naoki Hamaguchi said the world premiere of gameplay footage highlighted new features in Revelation, though specifics on those features were not detailed in the announcement. The broadcast gave the game an extended showcase during the State of Play presentation.
The release date of April 8, 2027 lines up with the "Spring 2027" window that both Sony and the official Final Fantasy VII social account had previously attached to the game (PlayStation Blog; Final Fantasy VII on X).
What stands out is the platform lineup. Revelation will launch simultaneously on PS5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC — a multiplatform day-one release that breaks from the pattern set by earlier entries in the trilogy. The first two remake instalments launched as PlayStation exclusives before reaching other platforms later. For players who do not own a PS5, that wait no longer applies: every major current-generation platform gets the finale on the same day.
Sony had flagged Revelation as a featured title for its September 3 State of Play and State of Play Japan broadcasts in the days leading up to the event (PlayStation Blog). The dual broadcast format — a global stream followed by a Japan-specific one — reflects the franchise's dual audience: a worldwide fanbase built over nearly three decades, and a domestic Japanese market where Final Fantasy remains a cultural touchstone.
For fans of the trilogy, April 2027 is now a concrete date to mark rather than a season to guess at. For anyone who has been waiting to see how the remake saga concludes, the simultaneous multiplatform launch removes one more variable from the equation.
