FF7 gets two story expansions


The anticipation for Final Fantasy 7 has always been immense, but the latest news from Square Enix has managed to elevate the excitement even further. At the recent State of Play event, the company delivered more than just a gameplay look—they confirmed that the upcoming title, Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, is set to be an expansion experience, promising substantial narrative content for fans of the classic saga.

Beyond the visual showcase of the airship in action, the main focus shifted to the story itself. Square Enix officially announced the inclusion of two major story expansions, ensuring that players diving into the world of Revelation will have plenty of compelling material to explore. These additions are meticulously planned to deepen the lore and character arcs of the original masterpiece.

For those looking to maximize their experience, the game is being offered in several distinct editions. The standard edition provides a solid foundation, including a neat pre-order bonus: a mecha chocobo summoning materia. However, for those eager for the deep dive, the Premium Edition stands out, bundling the entire Story Expansion Pass. This pass grants access to both DLCs, one focusing intensely on the enigmatic Sephiroth and another dedicated to the complex relationship between Vincent and the Turks.

The choice for the ultimate fan comes in the form of the $100 Premium Plus edition. This tier is designed for the ultimate enthusiast, offering a tantalizing 24 hours of early access to the game, along with exclusive in-game cosmetics, a beautiful digital art book, and the complete soundtrack.

Mark your calendars, because the release schedule for these narrative treasures is set. The expansion focused on Sephiroth is slated to arrive in Winter 2027, followed by the second expansion, centered on Vincent & The Turks, which is scheduled for release in Spring 2028. It looks like the journey through Final Fantasy 7 Revelation is going to be a marathon, not a sprint, providing a grand, multi-year narrative experience for dedicated players.
