Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis Announced for PC

Square Enix hosted a panel for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at New York Comic-Con 2023 hosted by Critical Role’s Matt Mercer, in which the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth voice cast discussed their experiences voicing the game’s iconic characters. During the panel, Matt Mercer confirmed he will voice Vincent Valentine, and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth director Naoki Hamaguchi appeared for a surprise question-and-answer session at the end.

Following a barrage of news and announcements last month, Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has looked very good. From new Synergy Attacks in combat to extensive side content with over 100 hours of gameplay promised, there’s a lot for fans to dive into, including new playable characters like Red XIII, Cait Sith and even Sephiroth (albeit briefly).

Square Enix has taken to social media platform X to explain the artwork featured on the cover for the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Created by creative director of the game Tetsuya Nomura, the artwork is meant to represent three distinct worlds that Cloud Strife, Sephiroth, and Zack Fair find themselves in.

Official Square Enix figures of Aerith, Tifa, and Yuffie are discounted to less than $90.

With the release of patch 6.5 for Final Fantasy 14, almost the entire story of the game, starting from the opening quests in A Realm Reborn all the way to the latest content in Endwalker can now be played solo. As caught by VG247, the patch brings the game’s Duty Support system to dungeons from the Stormblood expansion, filling up the gap for a few dungeons that were left without the system so far.

Nintendo’s next-gen console has been in the leaks a great deal recently. Allegedly set to be capable of outputting visuals that’ll be comparable to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S thanks to its implementation of DLSS, recent leaks have claimed that the Switch 2 will be seeing simultaneous releases for a lot of major multiplatform games. However, if you were hoping that the console would also get a port of Final Fantasy 7 Remake – as some have speculated – it seems that won’t be the case.

Publisher Square Enix and developer Applibot will release a PC (Steam) version of Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis, the companies announced.

The Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy can never be faulted for its scale or ambition, and in its drive to be the most thorough, comprehensive, and frankly, unexpected retelling and reimagination of the original’s iconic story, it’s managed to already go above and beyond in ways that have taken many by surprise. But by the time it’s all over and the dust has settled, how well will its story connect with other chapters of the FF7 universe, especially given the intriguing changes and alterations that its making to the original’s own story?

Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth offers quite a lot for fans of the original and Final Fantasy 7 Remake. It has 100 hours of gameplay, with the side content double that of the main quest. It has tons of mini-games, from the Gold Saucer to The Grasslands. You can also play as Sephiroth (though terms and conditions apply).

Square Enix’sFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth has had many details revealed over the past week or so, from the reveal of Junon and The Grasslands to the sheer amount of content in the upcoming RPG. The developer also clarified that Vincent Valentine, who appeared in the State of Play trailer, would not be playable.

Square Enix has released new information and screenshots for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth introducing some of the game’s regions, exploration, world intel, mini games, and combat.

Square Enix has created a visual spectacle in their return story, Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis. Optimized for mobile, you can find it now on Google Play and Apple’s App Store. During my demo at Pax West I was able to tap through the first introduction to the game and was absolutely amazed at how good it looked on the IPad Pro, but as an initiate to Final Fantasy games, will Ever Crisis catch your attention?
