15 years after its first release on the PSP, Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII is making a return in remastered format in a few weeks' time. In anticipation of the game's launch, Square Enix aired a new, 3 minutes-long trailer:



The story of CRISIS CORE –FINAL FANTASY VII– REUNION begins seven years before the events of FINAL FANTASY VII and follows Zack Fair, a young Shinra SOLDIER operative. As his adventure unfolds, he discovers the dark secrets of Shinra’s experiments and the monsters they create.

Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII - Reunion features HD graphics, rearranged soundtrack, fully voiced dialogue in English and Japanese, and an updated combat system. The game will launch on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC this December 13.

Well, some of the dialog fells a little stiff but it does at least seem like the gameplay is going to be improved a lot from the original so it at least has that going for it graphics improvements aside.

We're gonna have to wait quite a while to get all of the Final Fantasy VII remake games, aren't we?

I'm surprised they didn't release this title until after the remakes are done.

It's the exact same dialog delivered the exact same way, just with new actors. So yeah, to be expected...subs are gonna be a must for this one.

I love this game and will replay it again, did the voice overs get worse?

This is one of the worst trailer I've ever seen.

They definitely want people to be aware of Zack's story before playing the new FFVReborn. This is a major departure from the original FFVII because tgis was a major plotpoint revealed very late into the game. You now basically know out of the gate that Cloud isn't who he says he is and at the end of Remake Zack is put right under the spotlight!

Is this based on what you have seen in trailers or was it expressed as a point of production?
Yeah has been an observation made by a lot of people around the web. I'm not sure I ever got around to playing the original, or if I did, only very briefly.

It didn't really capture my attention. I'll still give this a shot.

The trailer fell kind of flat on me. A lot of it has to do w/ the low energy voice acting. I'll grab it after it goes on sale at a steep discount 🙄🤷🏽‍♂😅😆😂.

And people don't understand why I can't stand eng dubs in Japanese games. This is one of the worst game trailers I've seen ever. :O
I'll still play it though, just with jp audio + eng subs

It's too bad, because I heard FFVII Remake had great English dubbing... Which will be jarring in terms of continuity.

Never played this on the psp. I preordered it from Amazon for the ps5. Also bought tales of xillia 1 and 2 (new). I might opt out of my cfw ps3, but I'm still researching the mania. I have a superslim that's never had any exploits on it, can't take any risks. ;)

I'm not a snob, so I usually watch everything in english, but some of the voice actors were horrible in the remake, in my opinion.

Too bad young Tifa got nerfed in this from PSP version.

I was kinda waiting this, but I think I'm going to stick with PSP version of the game for a while.

I've yet to give it a playthrough with the English dubbing, so I have no opinion yet. If CC and Remake have similar quality dubbing, then what I said doesn't hold weight.

I suspect FF7r Chapter 2 will NOT release next year.

It doesn't actually make a lot of sense financially for S-E to release 3 Final Fantasy games in the same 12 month period.

December 2022: FFCC
Summer 2023: FF16
December 2023: FF7r2.

Kind of feels they'd cannibalize their own market by doing that.

The two titles has nothing to do with each other.

I couldn't care less about Crisis Core or FF16.

I only care about FF7R2.
