The latest Final Fantasy VII news is on the way. On the heels of the big Xbox and Bethesda showcase as well as the lengthy Summer Game Fest main event, Square Enix has scheduled a special Final Fantasy presentation for this evening. While it’s rumored that Sony will potentially have another event at the end of the month, tonight’s Square Enix showcase essentially caps off the summer reveal season. It appears as though it will be a “short and sweet” broadcast centered around the Final Fantasy VII 25th anniversary, but that could mean a number of things, including part 2 of Final Fantasy VII remake. Head below to follow along with tonight’s Square Enix show.
Square Enix Final Fantasy VII showcase
While we are only expecting a 10-minute live stream for tonight’s Square Enix showcase, the fact that it also lines up with the 25th anniversary for one of the most beloved games in history could indicate more on the remake.
The Final Fantasy VII remake only really covers the first 10% or so of the actual game due to Square deciding to expand the Midgar portion of the experience with loads of new content, leaving gamers to wait for what would hopefully be a future announcement of a part 2 that would wrap up the overhauled remake in its entirety. Well, tonight could very well be that night, and while we aren’t expecting a full gameplay blowout here, cross your fingers for a new trailer or some indication that part 2 is indeed in the works.
We could also, and likely will, see updates for the upcoming mobile games with the Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier battle royale title and episodic game Ever Crisis.
It all starts right now, so be sure to follow along with the stream below and head back here afterward for full resolution footage of the announcements as they become available:
In this show we will be bringing you all the latest information relating to the 25th anniversary of FINAL FANTASY VII.
