With Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion being launched on PS5/PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Steam and Nintendo Switch in the not too distant future, we thought it would be a good idea to run-through all of the different changes Square Enix has made as they attempt to make the original game more palatable for modern audiences.
Within this video, we're going to run through Crisis Core Reunion changes that related to gameplay, presentation, story and structure!

Judging from how ff7 remake showed Zack alive, I imagine the ending will be different from the original

@willowingwhispers2612 Жыл бұрын

My guess is they'll have an "alternative" ending that we can trigger or unlock once we beat the game. I doubt it'll be very long, probably a minute or two, and we'll get the actual answers for what happened in Part 2 of the remake. This way, there are no major changes, but they're still able to loosely weave it into the Remake.

Most of the gameplay changes sound surprisingly great. Controllable camera, storeable limit breaks, and remake style 'punisher mode', all sound like really great additions. I do really hope they add some new cutscene that somehow connects it to Remake/Rebirth though. Maybe not right at the end though, cos you don't wanna mess with that ending.

Cant wait to watch this ending again in full HD to make me emotional again. Like for real the original ending was so good it made me tear up after playing as Zack for the entire game and all side content. The soundtrack is so good in the original I will definitely miss that. I mean that was along time ago and I bought a PSP just to play it but damn it was good. If they just ported this old PSP game to PC, people would hate it as it was made to be played on a tiny screen.

Mainly though, I believe they did this, so newer fans can get to know Zack, and not be as confused when his story elements are introduced into the next FFVII: Remake sequel portion though, so it was a good choice on SE's part, at the moment to reintroduce Crisis Core to a new FFVII player base.

It's easy to think that, but really it's more of a sequel that happens both after and alongside the original FF7 chronologically. The title "Remake" refers to character intentions, not what the game is. It's definitely a sequel in the story.
