Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the first game in 2024 I beat which was actually released in 2024, and it was absolutely amazing. I had no attachment to the Final Fantasy series except for the little bit I’d played of Final Fantasy IX until this year when I played and beat Final Fantasy VII Remake. I absolutely loved the characters and story the game was telling, but it did have some issues and felt like it was just a prologue for what was to come, and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth shows us the true game Final Fantasy VII Remake was meant to be. Rebirth begins after the end of Remake where Cloud, Aerith, Tifa, Barret, and Red XIII are leaving Midgar and making their way out into the world, looking for Sephiroth in an attempt to stop him. The game grows your attachment to the characters from Remake, and adds many new great characters to what Remake introduced. The gameplay is an open world with so much stuff to do it’s crazy, with the same combat system from Remake. It’s pretty much impossible to talk about how great this game is without going on for hours and spoiling so much of what this game has to offer. This game is truly a masterpiece and it will be pretty much impossible waiting for the final game in this trilogy.
