FF7R Part 3 Development Update

Game director Hamaguchi recently provided an update on the highly anticipated sequel, urging fans to exercise patience as new details will be revealed at a later date. The team is diligently working on the project.

Hamaguchi highlighted the success of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth in 2024, citing its numerous awards and global acclaim. This success fuels the team's ambition to broaden the FFVII fanbase with a unique and challenging third installment.

Interestingly, Hamaguchi also mentioned being impressed by Grand Theft Auto VI, expressing his admiration for Rockstar Games and acknowledging the immense pressure they face following GTA V's phenomenal success.

Specific details regarding the upcoming third game remain scarce, though Hamaguchi assures fans that development is progressing smoothly. Considering the recent release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, this news is encouraging. However, Hamaguchi promises a truly unique experience.

The underwhelming initial sales of Final Fantasy XVI in May 2024, falling short of projected fiscal year targets, have been acknowledged. While precise sales figures remain undisclosed, Square Enix maintains that neither Final Fantasy XVI nor Final Fantasy VII Rebirth are considered complete failures, emphasizing the potential for both titles to still meet their long-term sales goals within their respective projected timelines.
