The wait is almost over (sort of)! Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth - the second instalment in Square Enix’s three-part Final Fantasy 7 remake - will be coming to PlayStation 5 on 29th February next year.
We’ve had a couple of glimpses of Rebirth since its announcement back in June 2022, and we know it’ll unsurprisingly be picking up the story from 2020’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake and later InterMISSION DLC - although “preparations” are being made to help you catch up if you can’t be bothered to play through either of those beforehand.
Wait, the remake wasn’t the full game?
FF7R was full game length but ended when the party left Midgar; in the original game that is a bit before the end of Disc 1.
Granted, the Midgar section was greatly expanded for the remake and it’s pretty clear that we’re not necessarily doing a 1:1 equivalence with the original game…
I think it will released into 3 parts: Remake, Rebirth and the third volume which I don’t think has been titled yet. What makes it even more confusing is that there was an “enhanced” version of FFVII Remake, released on PC and PS5, called Remake Intergrade.
