Final Fantasy VII Rebirth moves to 2024

Square Enix ended the recent Summer Game Fest showcase, by revealing a new trailer for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second chapter in the FF7 remake trilogy. Check it out.

The big news from the trailer is that the game is no longer releasing this year, but is now aiming for an early 2024 release, how early is unknown. One thing we do know is that the game will come on two PlayStation 5 discs, so its either insanely massive or the developer just doesn’t care about compression of data.

We’re honored to bring players around the world early next year the next installment of this thrilling tale, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

The party will embark on a new adventure, so players can enjoy this story even without any familiarity with the previous title or the original Final Fantasy VII. The vast and explorable world along with the newly evolved speedy battles are sure to provide a most exciting gaming experience to new adventurers.

We would, of course, like to invite returning players and longtime fans to watch our new trailer closely for glimpses of pivotal story moments that Cloud and his friends will confront.

The entire team has worked fervently with love and adoration for the world of Final Fantasy VII, reaching new heights of cinematic storytelling, immersive combat, rich exploration and more, and we can’t wait to share more details later this year.
