Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Story DLC Starring Two Fan-Favorite Characters Confirmed
Square Enix has confirmed that Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, the concluding chapter of the FF7 Remake trilogy, will launch on 8 April 2027, but the trilogy's story will continue further through two additional story DLC episodes. Revealed via the PlayStation Blog following a State of Play presentation, the expansions will focus on fan-favourite characters Sephiroth and Vincent Valentine, giving Square Enix a further opportunity to expand the remake trilogy's narrative beyond the base game's release.
The two chapters, currently titled "Story DLC 1: Sephiroth" and "Story DLC 2: Vincent & the Turks," will be bundled into a Story Expansion Pass as part of Revelation's Premium Edition, though they will also be sold separately, with pricing yet to be announced. Both are expected to release between Winter 2027 and Spring 2028. Director Naoki Hamaguchi has previously suggested such DLC would explore "untold stories" rather than retread established lore, echoing the approach taken with Remake's Yuffie-focused Episode INTERmission, which ran to roughly six hours. Revelation itself will launch on Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, PC and Xbox Series X.
In short
- FF7 Revelation confirmed for 8 April 2027, ending the remake trilogy
- Two extra story DLCs planned, starring Sephiroth and Vincent Valentine
- DLC releases between Winter 2027 and Spring 2028; pricing not yet revealed
Explained simply
Final Fantasy VII began as a 1997 role-playing game about a group resisting the Shinra company, which is draining the planet’s energy. Square Enix is retelling and expanding that story across a trilogy of remakes: Remake and Rebirth are the first two chapters, and Revelation is planned as the conclusion.
The story centres on Cloud Strife and his companions, alongside figures whose histories connect to the wider conflict. Sephiroth is a powerful former soldier who becomes a central threat, while Vincent Valentine is a reserved former member of Shinra’s security force; the Turks are Shinra agents. The remake project has also added material beyond the original game, giving players more time with characters and events.
