Whoever decided to let that damn cat throw boxes needs to be thrown into the stream of life.

What we know so far about Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3
Various main actors and producers of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series were surprisingly open about the third part and revealed some details about the game. First of all, we know that despite the differences in the first two parts, it should remain faithful to the ending of the original game. The plot has already been written.
We also know that the Highwind airship will play an important role in the game. More specifically, we will be able to “fly around the map freely,” which should make traversal much easier.
There's no word on a release window yet, but that's hardly surprising since Rebirth only launched this year. If we have a similar wait between games as last time, then there are still a few years to go.
