Final Fantasy VII Remake Now Available From Square Enix

Written by Brandon Hofer on April 10, 2020

News: Join Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, Barrett, and everyone else on a reimagining of one of gaming’s most influential titles.

After many years of hype and waiting, the Final Fantasy VII Remake is finally available on PlayStation 4. The Final Fantasy VII Remake draws players into a world where the Shinra Electric Power Company, a shadowy corporation, controls the planet’s very life force. Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra’s elite Soldier unit now turned mercenary, lends his aid to an underground resistance group calling themselves Avalanche as they fight against Shinra’s oppressive force.

Completely rebuilt using the best of modern gaming technology, Final Fantasy VII Remake is a reimagining of the iconic original game that re-defined the RPG genre. Along with unforgettable characters and a story revered as one of the most powerful within video games, the game also features a hybrid battle system that merges real-time action with strategic, command-based combat. The first game in the project is set in the eclectic and sprawling city of Midgar and presents a fully standalone gaming experience that goes deeper into the iconic characters and world than ever before.

For those games who care about trophies, the Final Fantasy VII Remake does indeed have a platinum trophy. We aren’t going to list all of the trophies because there are some story-based trophies that will spoil the game for people. With that said we have compiled a list of the non-spoiler trophies and they are listed below. Obviously, if you don’t want to know anything about the game prior to playing it you shouldn’t look at this list but if a trophy was “hidden” on the trophy list then we did not include in this list because it contained a spoiler.
