Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a remarkable sequel that expands and updates the original classic JRPG. The game features a remixed narrative that respects and expands on the original story, along with one of the best combat systems ever seen in a JRPG. The addition of Synergy Abilities adds depth to the battles, making each character unique and encouraging strategic gameplay.
Open areas, Chocobos, and extra activities
The game includes vast open-world areas that can be explored before moving on to the next location. Players can unlock Chocobos in each region with unique abilities, adding to the exploration and customization of the adventure. Completing side quests and open-world activities provide additional rewards and incentives for thorough exploration. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is full of easter eggs and optional missions that add depth to the gameplay experience.
Graphic quality and mini-games
If you played the demo of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, you already know what to expect, and even with the update, you will experience a similar effect to the first part: a visually stunning game one moment, but in mere seconds, you are faced with textures so weak that it becomes embarrassing. Yes, Square Enix repeats what they did in the first part, and it’s impossible not to lament that a game so rich in graphics terms can be so poor at the same time.
