Square Enix is confirmed to be working on the final episode of the 'Final Fantasy VII Remake' trilogy, but the production is still in early stages, similar to when the second part was released. The script has progressed, and new plot elements are being brainstormed, but the release date is uncertain, possibly around 2028. There are no plans for a fourth part, but remasters of the remakes may be considered.
