Fans of Final Fantasy can't complain about a lack of excitement. Although Square Enix hasn't officially announced the third part of the remake yet, a detailed leak has emerged online that has quickly fired up the community. According to it, the conclusion of the trilogy often referred to as Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 could be showcased as early as the Summer Game Fest 2026. The problem is that some of the information sounds just too good to be true.
What the leak says, large scale and new mechanics
The leak suggests that the game would be titled Final Fantasy VII Return and debut in early 2027. However, the most excitement comes from the details regarding the content. We're talking about a significantly larger world, even twice the size of that in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, and a huge emphasis on the story, with the number of cutscenes reportedly several times greater than before. In addition, there will be new playable characters and an additional combat system called "Active Turn Action," which is said to combine elements of classic ATB with modern action.
On paper, this sounds like a dream come true for fans—larger scale, more story, and greater freedom in gameplay. Additionally, there are talks of a return to Midgar and the expansion of the world with new areas, which could further enhance the epic nature of the trilogy's finale. If even part of this information turns out to be true, it could be one of the biggest releases of this generation.
Why some information raises doubts
The problem is that some elements of the leak seem unrealistic. Tripling the number of cutscenes or such a significant increase in the scale of the world is a massive production challenge, even for a large studio like Square Enix. However, the most controversy arises from the combat system; a return to a more turn-based style contradicts the direction in which the series has been developing in recent installments. The creators previously clearly suggested that they wanted to move towards more dynamic action, not revert to old solutions. Additionally, insiders are tempering expectations, suggesting that some of the information may be false or exaggerated. This means the leak should be treated with a great deal of caution. On the other hand, its very popularity shows just how high the community's expectations are for the conclusion of Cloud's story.
The leak regarding Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 has sparked the imagination of fans, but much suggests that some of the information may be exaggerated. We might have to wait for official confirmation until the Summer Game Fest.
