‘Final Fantasy VII Remastered’ on PS4 Priced at $10.87 for Limited Time

FF7_vs_FF7_Remastered_PS4

As you’re likely aware, during the weekend at PSX, Square Enix showed off the first official (non-teaser) trailer from the Final Fantasy VII Remake. What makes the trailer especially noteworthy is that it’s the first time we’ve seen the game running on a PS4 with gameplay footage. Like E3, fans were quick to lose their mind and soon after that, were ready to be punched in the gut as we expect these days from Square.

While the E3 presentation was pure bliss, it was soon revealed to the dismay of many that this won’t be a direct remake of FF7 and that Square will make changes to the game, including storyline tweaks and gameplay mechanical chances. Over the weekend, we saw some of that which moves the game away from ATB system to a more, action based RPG. Think along the lines of Kingdom Hearts. However the biggest controversy since then is the reveal that once released, FF7 will come in multiple parts that will likely span a few years. It’s unclear how many parts and how much each part will cost.

This article isn’t necessarily about that because I still haven’t fully considered all the pros and cons of such a move. However, it feels timely to point out that during the weekend, Final Fantasy VII Remastered was made available on PS4: basically the original game which was released a few years later on PC with some slightly better graphics and minor fixes. So if you’re looking to relive the original in as pure of a form as you can, you either purchase the original PSone version for $9,99 or this version for $10.87 for a limited time. Once the deal is gone, the game will shoot back up to its normal $15.99 price.

A little more after the jump.

It’s also worth noting that by purchasing Final Fantasy VII Remastered, you’ll also be getting a very unique and beautiful FF7 theme for PS4, especially designed to fire up your nostalgia for the beloved classic. Now if I could only convince myself to change that Destiny theme. Maybe I just needed a bit of Sephiroth in the theme.
