Watch 11 minutes of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth gameplay features — and the final trailer

Cosmo Canyon. Nibelheim. Dolphin racing. Vincent (*11*). A one-winged Sephiroth. Marlene’s dad Dyne. Mini-game after mini-game after mini-game to play. “The world will be saved, but will you?” asks the sport’s trailer, with nearly zero subtlety that the occasions of this sport will decide Aerith’s notorious destiny.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is coming February twenty ninth, and each Sony and Square Enix need to make rattling positive that followers know this sport is a can’t-miss occasion — despite the fact that it’s not the conclusion to the remake of Final Fantasy VII and can have one other sport following it.

But as an enormous fan of the unique PS1 title who initially held out on enjoying Remake for that motive, I’ve gotta say the 15-plus minutes of video that Sony and Square Enix launched as we speak depart me fairly excited. A giant world map with all these areas and mini-games and moments I keep in mind! New companions and tag-team assaults like Cait Sith spinning round with Cloud’s sword! Classic blocky characters! 400 newly recorded items of Final Fantasy music! 4K graphics or 60fps, with higher-resolution property than Remake due to the PS5’s SSD!

Did they actually cram this a lot right into a single sport? I suppose we’ll see in three weeks — or perhaps beginning as we speak now {that a} playable demo has arrived. Then once more when Square Enix updates that demo to incorporate some of the Junon area!

They’re working laborious to persuade us.
