Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth won the Most Anticipated Game of 2024 award during The Game Awards. We all expected this due to how iconic the seventh entry of the main series is. If you didn’t know, Square Enix is splitting this epic story into three games. Even if many think this is a cash grab, the award and the reaction to the latest trailers show fans of the series don’t mind spending money on one, if not the best game of all the franchise, which is finally arriving.
Final Fantasy 7 Wins Most Anticipate Game Awards Ahead of its February Release
Those with keen eyes might’ve spotted several details during this trailer. Cid and Vincent Valentine’s confirmation excited many players looking forward to seeing these characters in a new, modern light. Besides, Loren Allred, known for her work in The Greatest Showman, performed “No Promises to Keep,” the game’s theme written by none other than Nobuo Uematsu.
Whether you’re a veteran fan or a newcomer, this is a must-play. If you played the original title, you know where the story of this one is going. Even if the plot changed in the first remake, most key aspects of the plot are still around, and without spoiling, we’re about to take a trip to one of the game’s most iconic and heartbreaking moments.
Besides the Most Anticipated Game Award for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, it was a big night for another game of the franchise in The Game Awards. Final Fantasy 16 won Best Score and Music, thanks to the fantastic work of Masayoshi Soken, who’s also worked on all the music of Final Fantasy 14. Overall, it was a great night for this legendary RPG franchise, and these awards show that regardless of your age or when you started playing this game, the world of Final Fantasy has a way of reaching us, no matter how. Congratulations to the winners, and here’s to another year of Chocobos and cute, edgy guys.
