Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is Getting An All New Storyline
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth players will get to experience an all-new storyline when they reach the Costa del Sol segment of the game. With the game releasing in about a month, Square Enix has been revealing new information about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth to keep fans excited.
The original Final Fantasy 7 has been out since 1997, so by now, most gamers are already aware of the major plot points in the title, even if they have not played it. As such, Square Enix has been changing the story of the remake project in some significant ways to keep the plot fresh for returning fans and newcomers. Now, it's been confirmed that Costa del Sol, a resort town that Cloud and company briefly visited in the original, will change in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
The information comes via a translation from a Twitter user, aitaikimochi, of Motomu Toriyama, the co-director of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, who revealed at the Taipei Game Show 2024 that Costa del Sol will now have an all-new story. The translation went on to say that the resort would be the place where Cloud and company could have some downtime amid the seriousness of the story.
It was also revealed that player choice will play a part in the game and even affect cutscenes depending on the affinity between party members. This affinity level will also have an impact in combat, where players will have various team attacks. Summons in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will also be getting an update where players can now upgrade their materia to make them stronger. Additionally, there will be a variety of mini-games, including Chocobo races, where players can earn gear for their feathered pals.
With the promise of new storylines and features, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is looking to be like a massive game. And with the 27th anniversary of the original Final Fantasy 7 quickly approaching on January 31, fans are wondering if Square Enix has yet to reveal the best surprises.
