In an interview with French YouTuber Julien Chieze, Hamaguchi spoke at length about the series. Thanks to an English translation from Twitter user Genki, we learned that Hamaguchi and Tetsuya Nomura are almost ready to announce the name of the final entry in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy. He said, “Me and Tetsuya Nomura have already narrowed it down to two [names], within the year, we will decide on which one….Within this year, it will be set.”
When Will Final Fantasy 7 Part 3‘s Name be Revealed?
It’s important to note that this interview took place in October 2025, but wasn’t posted until December 7th. With that in mind, it’s safe to assume that the two developers have likely decided on the name by now. If they do plan to announce the name, there aren’t many days left on the calendar. Thankfully, there’s one last big event that might make the perfect stage for such an announcement.
Again, don’t get your hopes too high about a new trailer from Final Fantasy 7 Part 3 at The Game Awards, but it would make a lot of sense for Square Enix to drop the name at the event. The team might speed up the timeline now that we’re in the homestretch, but the final part of the trilogy probably isn’t launching until 2027 at the earliest.
Fans of the series will remember that Rebirth‘s first big trailer happened at Summer Game Fest in 2023, about a year before that game launched. It got another trailer at that year’s The Game Awards, so Square is definitely open to appearing on Geoff Keighley’s various stages. However, having a trailer for a game that is likely more than a year away seems like a stretch too far.
