Final Fantasy 7 Remake
The classic PlayStation RPG returns in Final Fantasy 7 Remake. In a unique twist on the formula, Final Fantasy 7 Remake acts as a reimagining of the original game's events, except the entirety of this first entry in the future trilogy takes place in Midgar. Acting as a sequel to the original title, Remake puts players in the shoes of Cloud Strife, an ex-SOLDIER from Shinra now making ends meet as a mercenary for hire. When Cloud partners up with an eco-terrorist group, Avalanche, he returns to Shinra to sabotage their reactors. When things go awry, and ghosts from his past begin to re-appear, Cloud will now have to face those demons head-on as fate seems determined to intervene and keep the cast on a destined path - embarking on the journey of a lifetime as Cloud and his friends race to stop Sephiroth and his hidden agenda.

Summary
The classic PlayStation RPG returns in Final Fantasy 7 Remake. In a unique twist on the formula, Final Fantasy 7 Remake acts as a reimagining of the original game's events, except the entirety of this first entry in the future trilogy takes place in Midgar. Acting as a sequel to the original title, Remake puts players in the shoes of Cloud Strife, an ex-SOLDIER from Shinra now making ends meet as a mercenary for hire. When Cloud partners up with an eco-terrorist group, Avalanche, he returns to Shinra to sabotage their reactors. When things go awry, and ghosts from his past begin to re-appear, Cloud will now have to face those demons head-on as fate seems determined to intervene and keep the cast on a destined path - embarking on the journey of a lifetime as Cloud and his friends race to stop Sephiroth and his hidden agenda. Additionally, the game departs from the original title as an action RPG title, ditching the classic turn-based gameplay for modern, fast-paced combat with spell-slinging systems.
