Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Summer Game Fest Trailer Breakdown

During the Summer Game Fest showcase a trailer for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth rounded off the show following a weird but kind of cool marketing event that they ran on their <a href="https://twitter.com/finalfantasyvii/status/1665342665502920706" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">social media accounts</a>. I was slightly surprised that they showed it off so close to the release of Final Fantasy XVI but I was incredibly glad. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkD8BCCYsS0" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">The trailer did not disappoint in the slightest</a>. I haven’t done something like this before so I am a little anxious posting this but I hope you enjoy it regardless. I have used the video on the previous link and timestamped the sections below with my theories and impressions. This article will spoil some aspects of the original game, Crisis Core and Remake. <ul> <li>00:00–00:04 — Image flashes up. Looks like Midgar with a possible tornado in the background. The Shinra building may be in the distance on the right. It’s a blink-and-you-will-miss-it type image. I didn’t notice it the first few times I watched it and it was quite hard to pause the video to see a clear image of it. Could this be related to the end of Remake with the Whispers? However, the next scene refers to the tornado more directly.</li> <li>00:04–00:08 — It’s a gutsy way to start the trailer. I find it quite impressive. Makes me wonder what the hell is going on. It’s a live TV news broadcast where the graphics say it’s being filmed from Sector 2, someplace we haven’t visited in the original or remake. With it being a new sector to the player I would guess this is a deviation from the original game in a significant way.</li> </ul> <a href="https://pixelparables.medium.com/final-fantasy-vii-rebirth-summer-game-fest-trailer-breakdown-e207f852c00c">Visit Now</a>
