Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s “You-Know-What” Moment Will Deliver a Big Surprise, Director Says
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will feature what is likely the most well-known event of the original, and of JRPGs in general, and it sounds like it will be surprising even for those who played the original.
There will be heavy spoilers past this point, so avoid reading on if you haven't completed the original Final Fantasy VII.
Speaking during last week's Thailand Game Show 2023, director Naoki Hamaguchi talked with Gamebrott.com about this important event regarding Aerith, saying that, with it, the team will deliver a big surprise. This is a very interesting statement which suggests not only that things will not play out as they do in the original but also that they will do so in an unexpected way.

The Final Fantasy VII Rebirth director also talked about the snowboarding minigame in the original, which will only make its debut in the third and final entry in the series. This isn't surprising, considering the game will end at the Forgotten Capital, and the snowboarding minigame gets introduced after the part leaves the location in pursuit of Sephiroth.
In another interview, Hamaguchi confirms that the snowboarding minigame will indeed be in the third part of the trilogy. https://t.co/8Rgll0tMFa
