Vice recently interviewed Final Fantasy 7 Revelation's Director Naoki Hamaguchi, and in it Fortnite was mentioned:
Brent Koepp: Do you think we could see Final Fantasy 7 characters eventually come to Fortnite as well?
Naoki Hamaguchi: So the Fortnite team are incredible and great partners to work with. You know, we already do have a relationship with them thanks to the Kingdom Hearts collab. That being said, it is a very difficult question to answer. What I can say right now is that, looking back at the history of Final Fantasy 7, fans might notice this, but we haven’t had a lot of very major collaborations with other IPs.
This is mostly because we wanted to be selective to protect the brand of Final Fantasy 7. But what I can say now is that we are, you know, considering a lot of, you know, different collaborations at the moment. So, you know, whether Fortnite is included in the list of potential collaboration partners, that’s something for the fans to look forward to.
In terms of which character I could see in Fortnite, I was thinking of Barret. You know, given that Fortnite is a game where characters have their own guns that they equip and play with. I was thinking about how Barret would work in that game, given that his entire arm is already a gun. So that’s different now.
Speaking of Fortnite though, I can also say that the whole parachuting mechanic in Final Fantasy 7 Revelation was inspired by it. You know, being on the Highwind and jumping off it to parachute into the map. That is something we directly took inspiration from Fortnite.
