Final Fantasy 7's remake trilogy has, at the very least, given us a trio of pretty solid RPGs—I had a great time with the first, and I'm soon to buckle up and finally give Rebirth a go. But I can't help but wonder, quietly, whether or not Final Fantasy has fallen into the same 'fear of new IP trap' as other games... Read more.

Final Fantasy 14 isn't any stranger to crossovers—but Evercold will be a first for the MMO, wherein both the raid series and the alliance raid series (8-man and 24-man raids, respectively) will be crossovers. With the latter being a whackadoodle Evangelion crossover, and the former being a far more reasonable FF7 one... Read more.

Less than three years after it went live on Steam, Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis is calling it quits. Square Enix said in an end-of-service announcement that the sale of Red Crystal in-game currency has already been halted, and the game itself will be taken offline on October 6... Read more.

I rather enjoyed the first Final Fantasy 7 remake—I sank a comfy 35 hours into it, plodded along its story, and had a grand old time. I never got around to Rebirth, though. Partially because I just didn't have the time, but also because I didn't want another fully-priced AAA game taking a chunk out of my wallet... Read more.

The Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy will soon come to an end with next year's third and final entry, Final Fantasy 7 Revelation. The Square Enix RPG was the last big announcement for today's Summer Game Fest live show, and one you can play on PC when it launches next year... Read more.

The new version of Final Fantasy 7 that Square Enix announced in a boldly detail-free post last January hit Steam yesterday and, well, people aren't happy about it... Read more.

The world has fallen under the dominion of the Shinra Electric Power Company, a sinister corporation that has monopolized the planet's very life force as Mako energy. In the urban megalopolis of Midgar, an anti-Shinra rebel group calling themselves Avalanche have stepped up their campaign of resistance. Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra's elite SOLDIER unit now turned mercenary, lends his aid to the rebels, unaware that he will be drawn into an epic battle for the fate of the planet, while having to come to terms with his own lost past. This new release is an upgraded version of FINAL FA

There's a new version of Final Fantasy 7 coming to Steam to take the place of the 2013 release, and everyone who owns the original can have it for free—and even better, they'll continue to have access to the old edition, too. You might be curious what's new in this new version, or when it will be out, and I'm sorry to say I can't help... Read more.

If you've been playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and it's your first time experiencing the world of Cloud, Shinra, Sephiroth, and co., I should advise that this article will spoil a significant part of the RPG's story. We're talking mysteries here - in fact, one of the biggest mysteries in PC gaming history. Final Fantasy 14 had a resurgence this year thanks to Dawntrail. FF16 finally made the leap to Steam. But long before any of that, back when the Square Enix series was still in its (relative) infancy, there was one myth that hung over the entirety of Final Fantasy 7. Now, thanks to some visi

I never finished Final Fantasy 7. I know there are plenty of people who can forgive the stilted, over-formal oddity of its English translation, but I'm not one of them. Fortunately, there are other people out there who think FF7 deserves better, including the Shinra Archaeology Team. This squad of modders has put together the Shinra Archaeology Cut of Final Fantasy 7, a retranslation mod that just hit 1.0... Read more.

The Sephiroth boss fight in the first Kingdom Hearts is still one of the series' toughest, and it turns out his voice actor hasn't managed to beat it. We've all been there: you're rocking your way up through the ranks in Olympus Coliseum, not a care in a world. You're knocking down titans, you're facing off against Final Fantasy friends, you've got this! Then, those damn strings start playing, and the one and only Sephiroth turns up. And of course, you get your ass thoroughly whooped, because he is tough as nails. He's still tough to this day, arguably even harder than the second game's Sephir
