    I have a dumb question:

    So, the naming convention is confusing here, is this just the next installment of the Remake?

      Not dumb at all. The naming convention is whack.

      This is indeed the next instalment of the remake, the sequel to Final Fantasy VII: Remake + Intergrade (the Yuffie DLC)

        How vital is it to play the Yuffie DLC? I avoided it because it came just long enough after the main game that I didn’t fancy re-learning how to play for a short DLC.

        Admittedly, as may be apparent, I didn’t look too much into it.

          It’s probably not too vital. It sets up some new backstory for Yuffie (and also ties into some elements of Dirge of Cerberus of all things), but I am assuming Rebirth will sum up the important parts of Yuffie’s story so far, at least in broad strokes, for when she joins the party.

        Ok great! I didn’t finish the first installment on PS4, so I can wait for this new release and play through the first part and second part + DLC all in one game. Sounds good to me!

          The order is actually First Part > DLC > Second part, but yes! And if you fancy getting the full experience they also re-released Crisis Core FF7 (the prequel with Zack and Sephiroth) on PS5 as well well.

          SqEnix isn’t milking this at all 🤡

            It makes sense, especially with the direction Remake started to go. And the original Crisis Core was getting to be very dated by now, so a refresh was welcome

            I don’t understand why some companies just can’t figure out a consistent naming schedule for sequels. I’m looking at you Capcom and Street Fight Ultra Turbo Alpha Second Strike Tournament Edition with a Cherry On Top

        Since you seem to know what’s going on, is FF7 Rebirth a full package? Ie does it include Part 1, the DLC, and the new Part 2 all in one game, or would someone have to purchase those separately?

          It is just part 2. Will there be a bundle of both at some point? Maybe. But it’s set to be a trilogy, each installment a separate release.

    Just beat 6 this weekend and started 7.

    I think I got pretty far in it back in the day, but I don’t think I ever finished it.

        There’s a similar bit in Trails in the Sky I ended up unexpectedly enjoying.

        Joshua: “Good luck, Estelle.”
        Estelle: “…What do you mean, good luck? You’re coming too, right?”
        Joshua: “…Pardon? The plan is using a maid’s disguise. There’s no butlers in that part of the castle.”
        Estelle: “So what? You fit GREAT in a dress!”
        Joshua: “…Just drop it, Estelle. They only have the one outfit.”
        Head Maid: “Well…so actually…”
        Joshua: “…no. No, we are NOT doing this!”
