Gaming Influence: Thoughts - Final Fantasy VII 25th Anniversary Celebration

Hello everyone, 

Welcome to Gaming Influence which is a reboot of the same name that I created back in WrestleCorp. However, not only will I be giving my thoughts on certain video games and video game series, but also video game movies, video game anime, video game digital presentations, etc.

For this edition of Gaming Influence, I'll be giving my thoughts on Final Fantasy VII 25th Anniversary Celebration, on June 16, 2022.

Anyway, let's get started!

Now, first off, for those who are unfamiliar with Final Fantasy VII, it's a role-playing game developed by Square Enix that was released on PSX in 1997. Since its release, it has been known as one of the best JRPGs ever made and one of the best games in the Final Fantasy series. In addition, there have been other Final Fantasy VII games that are related to the original game and recently, they made a reimaging of Final Fantasy VII with Final Fantasy VII Remake as this beloved game continues to evolve and expand for players and fans across the globe. With this presentation, it will be all Final Fantasy VII related whether it be video games, mobile games, concerts, merchandise, movies, TV shows, etc. on what's next for this beloved game. 

Anyway, let's get to it!

Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII - Reunion is a remaster of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII that was released back in 2007 on the PSP as it will be coming to PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC this winter.

Man, I've been wanting Square Enix to re-release Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII for a while since it's been stuck on the PSP for years so the fact that they're finally going to re-release the game, but also going to make a remaster of it to modern consoles?! Heck freaking yes! Plus, this remaster to me is not even a remaster, it's like a remake as they changed the graphics, changed the gameplay a bit to make it more modernized, and changed the voice acting for the characters as well as they're going all in with this supposed remaster and it's awesome. I can't wait to play this game again and if you guys haven't played this game before and you're a Final Fantasy VII fan, I suggest getting this game when it comes out this winter.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the second game in the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy as it will be released on PS5 next winter.

I've been waiting for more news of the second part of Final Fantasy VII Remake, and we've been told we're getting more news this year, and we got it. Holy crap, it looks amazing as expected and man, without spoiling anything, it seems like they're going for a very interesting direction for the story of this reimagining, and I'm stoked. Plus, they also announce here that the Final Fantasy VII Remake project will be a trilogy, so that's nice to hear. There are so many directions on where they can go with this trilogy and I'm freaking hyped about it. I can't wait for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth when it's released next winter.

Overall, this was a great presentation from Square Enix. Not only they delivered with the video games, but they also delivered with the merchandise, music, and mobile games as well. This is a great time to be a Final Fantasy VII fan as we're being fed here, and I love it. Great job Square Enix and Happy 25th Anniversary for Final Fantasy VII!
