Louder for the shareholders in the back: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth producer says Part 3 may be finished within just 3 years because the dev team hasn't been split up
Final Fantasy fans have a lot to unpack today, as the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Ultimania book has now launched in Japan, giving us more juicy details about the recent RPG as well as the next chapter in the Remake trilogy. Notably, we've gotten a little more indication as to how long we can expect to wait for Part 3, even if no release window has been confirmed yet.
According to Aitai Japan CEO and reliable translator Audrey on Twitter, who's been going through Ultimania and sharing all sorts of fascinating snippets, the main story for the third part of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy is already complete. Reportedly, Rebirth co-director Tetsuya Nomura thinks that voice recording for the next RPG might start soon, too, so it sounds like things are already starting to truly come together.
Elsewhere, Rebirth producer and original Final Fantasy 7 director Yoshinori Kitase spoke about how fast the trilogy's second installment was made. Although we did wait almost four years after the release of Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Rebirth was apparently finished within three years, since one year went toward the Remake DLC, and the producer is hoping for Part 3 to follow the same schedule.

Kitase says that the reason Rebirth was developed so efficiently is because Square Enix still had the same staff on board from Remake, which makes a lot of sense. Keep the people who make good games instead of laying them off in the name of quarterly margins and they can make another good game – who knew. Considering that the same situation applies again to the third game, that bodes pretty well, and it makes sense that the producer is hoping for it to take a similar amount of time.
