Evaluation

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH is the second entry in Square Enix's three-part FINAL FANTASY VII remake trilogy. It launched on Steam on January 23, 2025, bringing the PlayStation 5 version to PC with enhanced visuals, high frame rate support, and other technical improvements. Since launch, Square Enix has issued a series of patches: Version 1.001 through 1.003 (January–March 2025) addressed stability and bug fixes, Version 1.004 (November 4, 2025) added DLSS Multi Frame Generation support, and Version 1.005 (June 3, 2026) introduced a Streamlined Progression accessibility feature and AMD FSR upscaling. These are all technical and quality-of-life updates rather than new story or gameplay content. All six DLC items in the store listing are released, and they consist entirely of music products — the original soundtrack, orchestral and acoustic arrangement albums, and a live concert recording. No story expansions, gameplay DLC, or unreleased content is listed anywhere on the store. On June 25, 2026, Square Enix announced FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION, the third and final game in the trilogy, targeting Spring 2027 (with a pre-purchase now open for an April 8, 2027 launch per a September 4, 2026 post). Importantly, REVELATION is a separate, standalone product — not additional content for REBIRTH. The announcement explicitly directs players to play REBIRTH as preparation for REVELATION, reinforcing that REBIRTH is a complete, finished chapter in the trilogy. Square Enix has made no announcements of story DLC or gameplay expansions for REBIRTH itself, and the game was designed and marketed as a self-contained entry.

■ Story

The lifestream represents the very cycle of life and death, where all life emerges from the planet and returns to its embrace. However, the Shinra Electric Power Company ruthlessly drains the planet of its very essence, the lifestream, and processes it for industry as "mako."

After overcoming countless fierce battles in the mako-powered metropolis of Midgar, ex-SOLDIER Cloud Strife and his companions step out into the wider world. Riding across grassy plains atop chocobos, they embark on an uncertain path, beginning their fated journey across the planet.

At the same time, SOLDIER First Class Zack Fair walks through the wastelands outside of Midgar. Wounded and weary, he drags his battered body forward while supporting his dear friend Cloud, who is delirious from mako poisoning. Beyond the veil of death, an ominous rift tears the heavens above.

Meanwhile, the Wutai interim government leads the Shinra Resistance Committee in a declaration of war.

In a grim procession, mysterious black-robed figures carry the remains of Jenova, the alien entity infamously known as the cataclysm from the stars and the catalyst of our plight.

Sensing the threat to the Planet itself, the fearsome guardians known as Weapons, awaken and rise from the lifestream.

Through the machinations of Cloud’s sworn enemy Sephiroth, the strands of destiny intertwine and are reborn again.
