The grand finale of this year’s Summer Game Fest was a brand-new gameplay trailer for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. While many would hope for a release date or playable demo, we saw some huge progress today. This game has a release window for February 2024, and many things from the first title are returning. We have stunning visuals, fantastic music, lovable characters, and a huge world we can explore while riding Chocobos. That’s right, the rumors about the open-world feature for the game might as well be true due to the gameplay we just saw.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Gameplay Reveal During Summer Game Fest Shows Open-World and New Combat Moves
Even if it wasn’t the longest Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth gameplay reveal, it was still full of content and a great way to close Summer Game Fest 2023. As mentioned during a recent interview, players can explore open areas, and today’s trailer more than confirms it. Chocobo mounts are coming, which is huge for this game’s beloved world. Besides that, we got to see some tag-team mechanics in the shape of new and flashy attacks that characters can do. How they work is still uncertain, but we can’t wait to see them in action.
One thing that has fans excited is the release window of early 2024. Many would’ve thought this game was far from done, but we might get it sooner than expected. Plus, this is the second of the three games Square Enix is planning, so we hope this title gives us plenty of hours to sink in while we wait for the conclusion of this Final Fantasy game.
If you haven’t, check the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth gameplay trailer to hype yourself up. And while you wait, Final Fantasy 16 is coming out this month, the next mainline entry of this legendary series, and will surely bring new things to this franchise.
