Final Fantasy VII: Revelation will be released in spring 2027, the final part of the remake trilogy. To make the game absolutely perfect, the developer has played it 40 times – and cried each time.
Why did he cry every time? In an interview with the Brazilian Omelete, director Naoki Hamaguchi revealed that he has played the JRPG completely 40 times, from prologue to epilogue.
In each run, he cried at a particular moment:
There is this scene that is central to the story, where Cloud dives into a moment of self-reflection and discovers his identity as well as understands how it relates to Zack and Aerith. I think the way we’ve portrayed this is really well done, and we can’t wait for fans to see it.
Players of the original can guess which moment it is, as hints regarding Cloud’s identity were already made in the 2nd part of the trilogy.
Final Fantasy VII Revelation will be emotional because of its scene
Warning, spoiler: Here we reveal which scene it is from the original. We won’t go into details. However, anyone who wants to enjoy Part 3 completely unbiased should skip this part until further article suggestions.
Which scene is meant? As Hamaguchi adds on X, it is a scene from the original Final Fantasy VII that also made it into the remake. It is one of the most memorable sequences from the 3rd part.
Presumably, it refers to the following scene from the original: Tifa and Cloud together fall into the life stream full of glowing Mako energy due to an accident. Tifa already knows from Part 2 that Cloud was just a small infantryman and that his memories actually belong to Zack.
In Part 3, however, she pieces together Cloud’s memories like a puzzle and separates truth from lies. This makes Cloud finally realize who he really is – which affects his condition.
As the remake takes some liberties, it may be the case that some details from the original have been altered. Therefore, it is certainly exciting for those familiar with the story to see how Cloud and his crew continue.

Unfortunately, the story of Final Fantasy VII is not as simple as one might think. To fully understand the complete story, one even has to catch up on a failed mobile game: To truly understand Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, I would have had to play a failed mobile game and numerous spin-offs
