Well,
yesterday I brought you information on Final Fantasy VII the Remake. Well now,
thanks to E3 2019 there is even more Final Fantasy VII info, specifically the
different editions of the game and the various voice actors, and there will be
much, much, more info shared over the next few months, until its release in
March 2020.
If there is anyone out there who doesn’t know
what I’m talking about, then shame on you, but you know what I’ll let you off, because
I’m always happy to talk FFVII. Ultimately, it’s a reimagining of the iconic 7th
game in the Final Fantasy series, released on the Playstation console in the
mid-late nineties. This time, it has been given a new coat of paint and the
turn-based strategy has been replaced with a more action-based gameplay that
merges real-time action with strategic, command-based combat.
Unlike the
original, the game will be released in three episodes, with the first game in
the project being set in the dynamic city of Midgar, although part of a larger
story it’s a great start to the series. If you want to see this in action,
watch the trailer from E3 2019 right here:
Final Fantasy VII will be released in several non-standard editions, these are Deluxe Edition, Digital Deluxe Edition and 1st Class Edition.
The Deluxe Edition contains the game, plus a hardback art book featuring stunning concept art, a Mini-Soundtrack CD, Summon Materia DLC allowing players to summon Cactuar in game, and a Sephiroth SteelBook case.
