⚡️ Final Fantasy 7 is staying on the aging Unreal Engine 4, the devs refuse to switch due to delay risks.
Naoki Hamaguchi confirmed the trilogy's finale lands spring 2027, and the engine stays for visual consistency. The studio already built Nanite-like tech in Rebirth, so this is PRAGMATIC, not lazy. With Unreal Engine 6 dropping that same year, jumping now would be pointless 😑
