Beyond the Lifestream turns FF14’s first FF7 crossover into a full raid arc—with FF7’s story team, Nomura on art direction, and a new difficulty between normal and savage.
Evangelion gets the 24-person spectacle and FFVII gets the tighter, story-first raid as Square Enix maps out FFXIV’s crossover-heavy 2026–2027 plan.
FFXIV’s next expansion is leaning hard into FFVII nostalgia, but Bastion’s twin-shield tank fantasy may be the more surprising piece of the puzzle.
Final Fantasy 14 is bringing FF7 Revelation fans a raid, a Gold Saucer update, and Sephiroth himself in 2027 — just in time for Square Enix to cross-promote both games.
