Square Enix Keeps Final Fantasy 7 Remake on UE4

In a Gamespot interview, Naoki Hamaguchi confirmed that Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 will use Unreal Engine 4 rather than Unreal Engine 5. He said the team has heavily modified UE4 and prefers its familiar, customized toolset over migrating to UE5. The decision affects potential use of UE5 features like Nanite and Lumen and may preserve higher framerates on mid-range PCs.
