could be on its way to Xbox consoles, based on a comment from producer Naoki Yoshida. While a PC port is already in development, this is the first hint of the 2023 action RPG coming to other consoles.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Will Remain PlayStation Exclusive

The yet-untitled third installment in the Final Fantasy Remake series will remain exclusive to PlayStation consoles. After years of rumors, speculation, and hope from legions of fans, Square Enix finally released the first chapter of its modern reimagining of Final Fantasy 7 in 2020. Final Fantasy 7 Remake only told a fraction of the original’s plot, with the recently-released Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth continuing from when Cloud and the party leave Midgar until the fateful trip to the Forgotten Capital at the end of the old FF7’s second disk.
A third game in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series has already been confirmed, with the development team behind this month’s FF7 Rebirth hinting that it could be about four years before it is ready to be released. It is widely assumed that this third entry will be the final chapter in the FF7 Remake series, but little else is known as of this writing. A few weeks before Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth hit stores, creative director Tetsuya Nomura noted that the next Final Fantasy 7 Remake could introduce airship travel via Cid’s trusty vessel, the Highwind.
Any fans hoping to take to the skies on any console other than PlayStation will have to temper their expectations, as Christian Svensson, the vice president of second and third-party content ventures and strategic initiatives, recently revealed that the third Final Fantasy 7 Remake game will remain a PlayStation exclusive. He recently spoke to The Washington Post about how securing the FF7 Remake series as a console exclusive “is a feather in the PlayStation cap,” and stated that doing so was part of recognizing the original Final Fantasy 7’s roots as an exclusive title for the original PS1 back in 1997.
This isn’t to say that the Final Fantasy 7 Remake saga has always been bound to PlayStation hardware, as a PC port of the first entry was released in December 2021 — a few months after the enhanced Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade arrived on the PS5. However, there have been rumors of Square Enix eventually releasing FF7 Remake and its sequels on Xbox or Nintendo consoles, with the latest being that Microsoft was supposedly in talks to bring FF7 Remake to Xbox back in January.
Square Enix has confirmed that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will remain exclusive to PlayStation consoles until at least May 29, 2024. Judging from Christian Svensson’s latest comments, it appears that a similar deal will be in place for the eventual third installment in the Final Fantasy 7 Remakeseries, and while it’s very likely that the last two FF7 Remake chapters will eventually come to PC like the first game did, fans hoping for an Xbox Series X or Nintendo Switch port will likely be disappointed by this latest development.
