The final part of the Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy Final Fantasy VII Revelation is looking to be something special. Today, it has been revealed that characters who featured in the various Final Fantasy VII spin-offs such as the beloved Advent Children, Dirge of Cerberus, and Crisis Core will make an appearance in Revelation. Here’s what Final Fantasy VII remake series director Naoki Hamaguchi had to say during a fan Q&A event in Shanghai:
“Well, at this time it’s best not to say whether Cissnei will appear or not, but there is one thing I can tell you.
This Final Fantasy VII Remake series is not simply a recreation of the original work, but rather, our goal is to create a single, new Final Fantasy VII that incorporates the settings and concepts of all the previous spin-off titles such as Advent Children, Dirge of Cerberus, and Crisis Core.
Therefore the appearance of Cissnei and the inclusion of Dirge of Cerberus Soldiers in the DLC, all have that meaning.
So, since that concept will of course carry over into Revelation as well, not limited to Cissnei, for the last entry, there will be characters that have appeared in the various FF7 compilation games that I think will be there, and each of these characters has a large and dedicated fanbase, so we want to create a work that can satisfy the feelings of those people.”
“Cissnei really has a lot of fans. Whenever I talk to the media or fans they very often ask me if Cissnei will appear or say they like Cissnei. (laughs)”
