Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a month and a half away from launch, and with excitement surrounding its release continuing to build, Square Enix has offered another look at what the action RPG will offer. Along with releasing a new trailer hyping up Cloud’s imminent battle with Sephiroth, the developer has also revealed some brief new details on some of the locations you’ll be visiting in the game’s massive world, and some of the new characters that will be featured in its expanded cast.
Where the former are concerned, there’s Starboard Junon, a residential district within the fortified metropolis of Junon. Overlooking the ocean, Starboard Junon is marked by housing for Shinra personnel, high-end boutiques, and restaurants, and is currently in the midst of preparing for Rufus Shinra’s presidential inauguration parade.
Another new location is Shinra-8, a Shinra cruise ship that ferries people between the planet’s eastern and western continents, and heads for the resort town of Costa del Sol after departing from Junon. Aboard the cruise ship, players will be able to take part in a Queen’s Blood tournament, which is a card game that players will be able to play in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
Coming to the characters, there is, of course, Elena, a newcomer we’ve seen a few times in past trailers. A new member of the Turks, she’s described as being “as skilled with her fists and a gun as anyone else” in the unit. Then there’s Cait Sith, whom Final Fantasy 7 fans will be very familiar with for his moogle mount and his hi-tech skills, both of which he can put to use in combat.
Screenshots showcasing combat and the aforementioned locations and characters have also been released. You can view them below. Make sure to also read up on new details on Cait Sith and Yuffie’s combat abilities.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth launches for PS5 on February 29.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will feature an ambiguous ending that will keep players wondering about the third and final part of the trilogy, according to the game's producer.
Calls for a Final Fantasy 6 remake are difficult to respond to, the series’ brand manager has said, because he believes such a project would take roughly twice as long as it has to remake Final Fantasy 7.
The second instalment of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy is set to launch soon, but there are, of course, plenty of other fan-favourite instalments in the long-running series that many have been hoping to see remade in similar fashion. Final Fantasy 6 in particular has been heavily demanded by series fans- though according to Yoshinori Kitase – producer on the FF7 Remake trilogy and co-director of the original Final Fantasy 6 – developing a remake series for the SNES classic would be an even more herculean task than developing the FF7 Remake trilogy.
As Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s launch approaches, Square Enix is continuing to ratchet up the hype and anticipation surrounding it, and the publisher has done that through a steady stream of new details, updates, gameplay footage, and more. Recently at Tapei Game Show, plenty more of that also got shown off.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth players will get to experience an all-new storyline when they reach the Costa del Sol segment of the game. With the game releasing in about a month, Square Enix has been revealing new information about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth to keep fans excited.
Final Fantasy 14 recently added a new furnishing item that hearkens back to the iconic square grapes from Endwalker’s original release. The Labyrinthos Grape Lamppost outdoor furnishing, added in Patch 6.55, lets Final Fantasy 14 players immortalize the meme outside their homes and Island Sanctuary forever.
Many people are looking forward to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, and that’s not a shock at all. When Square Enix released the first entry of the “remake saga” back in 2020, gamers were stunned by how well the publisher had remade the original title despite focusing only on the Midgar storyline for the “first part.” The graphics were stunning, the voice acting was on point, and the updated combat system made it feel like an RPG while also being “upgraded” to fit modern times. However, a few flaws held it back, mainly in the party system.
Sony Electronics and Square Enix have announced the official gaming television for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. The second entry of the FF7 remake project has become one of 2024’s most anticipated games for most, and with just over a month to go before its release, fans are understandably excited.
When Square Enix announced the “remake saga” for their all-time classic RPG and then noted that the game would be “cut into sections” to ensure quality throughout, gamers were a bit concerned. The game was in “full form” back on the PS1 and obtained legendary status, so why wouldn’t it be “In full” here? Well, their gambit paid off, and the first title featuring the “Midgar Saga” was a hit, not just because of the graphical upgrade but also because of the new elements fleshed out that part of the story. So, with Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, gamers are expecting more of the same.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is promising to be a massive experience, and while a significant portion of its optional content is obviously going to be focused on characters and storytelling (what with its Witcher 3 inspirations), there will, of course, be plenty of minigames for players to dive into as well.
For the record, we didn’t plan two stories about items you can get for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth to come in back-to-back days. Life decided to have a little fun with us, and we don’t mind. Yesterday, we discussed how Square Enix Reward Program members could get a special glitter globe featuring the Gold Saucer from the upcoming RPG. It was cute and adorable, and we’re sure some of you have already subscribed to the program so you can get it or are cashing in points to ensure you get it. But, if you’re looking for something a bit more “substantial,” then perhaps Amazon is where you go to get the game.
