Final Fantasy VII Revelation may include more Compilation characters, director says

gamingSep 1, 202641392

Final Fantasy VII Revelation is back in the spotlight after Square Enix will close a September 3 State of Play with an extended look at the game, and director Naoki Hamaguchi has teased that additional characters from the Compilation could turn up. Hamaguchi specifically hinted that Chadley will play a different, more central role, which has sent people rewatching and replaying earlier entries while theory creators push ideas like Aerith becoming a Goddess of Fate. The reveal push continues in person and online with a livestreamed PAX West panel on September 5 that promises exclusive event pins and more detailed discussion of the finale.

Can’t wait to see people spam “no disc no buy” only for the same people to buy/preorder Wolverine and GTA6

I’m ready to hear people bully the multibillion dollar corporation.

But I wanna see Kingdom Hearts 4! Bummer. Probably skip. Mad at Sony anyway for killing discs.

If Playstation is smart, they'd close the chat and comments for this.

Why are they splitting them up from where the games come from and why isnt FF7 in the Japanese one

It's incredibly how little I care about this now. I guess it'll be cool to hear about games that will be available elsewhere.

I have a good feeling about this

Oh this is going to be a mess I feel bad for any potentially cool games getting announced here. Unless they're directly Sony, they aren't to blame for Sony shooting themselves in the foot. But there will be so much (deserved) carnage in the chat. Especially when Sony doubles down.

Mr. Six6

I bet a lot of people will spam on chat saying to bring physical disc back when they stream on YouTube. I will laugh a lot if that happens.

Chats gonna be a disaster

I still can’t believe they’re doing this at Nintendo direct hours. I’m so used to these being in the afternoon. In fact, can Nintendo and PlayStation swap direct times? I’d like that thanks

I have no faith that the chat is gonna be anything but protests against Sony for the whole digital-only fiasco. Still, if there are any great games or things to come from this I'll definitely be happy for it

There's a lot of Iranian mythology and cosmology influences prevalent in the Final Fantasy series too! I've been writing about them within the scope of FFXIV but also reference some of the games Nasir contributed to in my PersiainFFXIV tag if you wish to to take a gander! bsky.app/hashtag/Pers...

FFVII Revelation will continue the Remake trilogy’s use of Compilation material, including characters and spin-off references. Naoki Hamaguchi says the team has planned more fan-service for the finale, but specific characters remain secret to keep the surprise. www.xeznaff.com/post/more-fa...

More Final Fantasy VII Revelation news?! They're really going all out on the info reveals. I'm not surprised Sony wanted to have their own showing though. Might be getting this final chapter sooner than we think.
