That date arrived during Sony&#8217;s latest PlayStation State of Play broadcast and just mentioned the title&#8217;s PS5 arrival \u2014 though we know the game will <a class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/final-fantasy-vii-remake-part-3-called-revelation-out-simultaneously-across-all-platforms\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">launch simultaneously for all platforms<\/a>, meaning this is when you should also expect its Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X\/S versions, as well as its PC launch via Steam and the Epic Games Store.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Following that, two expansions will also be released over the following 12 months. Story DLC 1: Sephiroth and Story DLC 2: Vincent &amp; the Turks are mentioned as part of a Story Expansion pass that&#8217;s now visible on <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/4910840\/FINAL_FANTASY_VII_REVELATION_Story_Expansion_Pass\/\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Steam<\/a>. No pricing is available yet for this pass, and no further detail on the story content of these DLCs is mentioned, though this confirms that suggested further chapters are on the way \u2014 something fans have expected <a class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/final-fantasy-7-revelation-getting-story-expansion-pass-store-leak-suggests\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">since the pass previously leaked via the Epic Games Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">All of the game&#8217;s cast \u2014 Cid, Yuffie, Red XIII, Vincent, Barret, Tifa, Cait Sith, and Cloud \u2014 made an appearance, with further battle customization detailed. Sidequests will also now play out different depending who you&#8217;re controlling and, somewhat weirdly, you can skip through dialogue at double speed, making characters sound a bit like chipmunks. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">You&#8217;ll even be able to leap down from the Highwind into the new region of Wutai, parachuting down to ground level like in Fortnite. Once there \u2014 and best of all \u2014 you&#8217;ll be able to wile away hours photographing its cats. Speaking of, Red XIII is now the focus of Revelation&#8217;s compulsive Queen&#8217;s Blood card game, if you&#8217;re into that.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You Can Photograph The Cat In Final Fantasy VII Revelation <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tzTNNUBMWz\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/tzTNNUBMWz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 IGN (@IGN) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/IGN\/status\/2095509862650122476?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">September 3, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Today&#8217;s announcement comes as part of the latest showcase from PlayStation.
