Final Fantasy 7 director says Revelation's Platinum trophy will be "easier to get"

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was intentionally designed to be difficult to achieve the Platinum trophy, resulting in only about 2.6% of players unlocking it. However, the sequel, Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, is expected to have an easier Platinum trophy to obtain, with director Naoki Hamaguchi expecting around 20% of players to complete it.

Hamaguchi admitted that the team aimed to guide players through all the content and perfect it, which contributed to the challenging nature of Rebirth's Platinum trophy. The director also expressed regret over the underestimated fan reaction to the trophy's difficulty. In contrast, for Revelation, combat needs to be enjoyable rather than just challenging, and the Platinum trophy will be easier to achieve.

Final Fantasy 7 Revelation is scheduled for release on April 8, 2027, on Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PS5, and Xbox Series.
