Final Fantasy 7 Revelation was the big closing event of the Summer Game Fest 2026 kickoff show, but director Naoki Hamaguchi didn't reveal all of the game's big secrets on stage. As it turns out, Revelation will offer a selection of "player choices" that affect how the story plays out, but the team is committed to a singular vision for the JRPG's long-awaited ending.
Those choices tie into the theme of "resolve" underlying this final chapter of the story. "As our party head into the final battle, the game is going to show the resolve that they carry within them," Hamaguchi tells GamesRadar+ via translator. "This goes without saying, but our heroes, Cloud and his companions, are beloved by a lot of fans around the world. But when we thought about that, we didn't want to just kind of deliver a singular storytelling experience for every single player around the world. We wanted each player – each fan – to have a unique experience as they head on to the final battle."
