Square Enix’s highly anticipated Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is once again positioned to be a milestone release for modern gaming, as director Naoki Hamaguchi has reconfirmed that the concluding chapter of the acclaimed remake trilogy will be available across multiple platforms—including the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
In an interview with Automaton Media, Hamaguchi directly addressed the community’s concerns following the recent announcements regarding the game’s platform strategy, ensuring fans that the quality and visual fidelity will remain uncompromised despite the broadened release. The Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy has proven to be a resounding success for Square Enix since the launch of its first part on PlayStation 4 in April 2020.
With over five million copies sold across PlayStation and PC platforms, the series has gained a renewed fan base and has set a new benchmark for reimagined classic RPGs.
Part 3 of the series, which is currently in the late stages of development, marks a strategic shift with Square Enix’s decision to simultaneously develop for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2, expanding the franchise’s reach to a more diverse player base via the eShop and other digital storefronts. Addressing concerns that the Nintendo Switch 2 hardware might lead to compromises in graphical quality, Naoki Hamaguchi clarified, "We are fully committed to delivering the same exceptionally high visual standards and immersive experience, no matter the platform.
Development begins with high-end PCs, ensuring peak graphical quality, and each version—including the Nintendo Switch 2—is then carefully optimized to maintain our strict standards.
The choice to bring Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 to multiple platforms does not diminish our expectations for quality." Hamaguchi further highlighted the overwhelmingly positive response to the multiplatform strategy, noting, "The enthusiasm for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox editions has been remarkable, as seen across online communities.
It is clear fans are excited, yet also apprehensive about quality.
I want to assure everyone that we are in the final stretch of development, and graphical or presentation compromises are not on the table." The remake series, led by Square Enix’s veteran development team, continues to push boundaries in scale and storytelling.
The upcoming release of Part 3 is poised to leverage the capabilities of next-generation hardware like the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2, while still honoring the original game’s legacy. While Square Enix has not officially announced the release date for Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3, Hamaguchi confirmed that the team is in the "final push" and further updates, including detailed previews and platform-specific features, will be shared at a later date.
Fans can look forward to an experience that complements the technical prowess of each system, ensuring the trilogy’s conclusion stands as a hallmark of multiplatform RPG development.
