At the end of the January 2024 State of Play presentation, Sony revealed that on February 6, it will hold a presentation dedicated to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. This is not the first time Sony has held a State of Play dedicated entirely to just one game, as the studio has held similar presentations for PlayStation exclusives, including Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us Part II, and Horizon: Forbidden West.
This will likely be the last deep dive look at Final Fantasy VII Rebirth before any reviews are published and before it releases to the public on February 29. Rebirth is part two of a planned trilogy remaking Square Enix’s influential 1997 JRPG Final Fantasy VII.
Picking up after the events of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Rebirth follows Cloud and his friends as they leave Midgar and venture off into the wider world. Locations such as the Mythril Mine and Kalm are confirmed to be in Rebirth while party memebers Vincent and Cait Sith are confirmed to make their debut.
In our first hands-on preview of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, my colleague Bo Moore said: “Story-wise, Rebirth again feels very familiar, and yet also different. This is due in part to the tremendous difference in scale and presentation – here, like with Remake, areas that were previously sparse or bare are expanded out into lush zones to explore. But there are also little changes that are mostly inconsequential, but they still play out in different ways than fans of the original FF7 are used to.”
