Twenty-six minutes longer than the original theatrical version and featuring roughly a thousand revised scenes with expanded themes and improved visuals, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete continues the storyline based on the hit game Final Fantasy VII. Two years have passed since Midgar fell to ruin, standing as a testament to the sacrifices made in order to bring peace. However, the world will soon face a new menace: a mysterious illness is spreading fast. Old enemies are astir and Cloud Strife, who walked away from the life of a hero to live in solitude, must step forward yet again.
The highly anticipated new story in the critically acclaimed Final Fantasy VII remake project sees Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Aerith and Red XIII escape from the dystopian city of Midgar into the wide world beyond. To hunt down Sephiroth, a haunting figure from Cloud’s past bent on ruling the planet, these unlikely heroes join forces with new companions like the spirited ninja operative Yuffie and the wisecracking, feline-shaped robot Cait Sith. Lead these characters into battle to overcome their fates. Explore classic locales reimagined in incredible detail. Encounter dozens of hours of rewarding side quests, fiend hunts, minigames and rich stories of the planet’s people and cultures.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the follow-up to the first game in the remake trilogy, Final Fantasy VII Remake, released in 2020 to universal acclaim from players and critics around the globe. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will arrive on PlayStation 5 on February 29th. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children will be in participating theaters on February 21-22.
