Rumor: Final Fantasy 7 Event Involves Square Enix and Another 'Big Company'
On Friday, Square Enix announced it would be holding a special Final Fantasy 7 25th Anniversary event on June 16. Fans had been expecting a Square Enix event announcement, but a Final Fantasy 7-specific event took some by surprise. It's unclear whether fans should expect announcements only for Final Fantasy 7-related projects or if Square Enix has other ideas in mind. A new rumor adds intrigue to the situation, claiming that Square Enix isn't the only «big company» involved in the show.
Reporter Pierre Coppi of indie gaming site PowerWave83 shared an interesting claim on their Twitter account following the announcement of Square Enix's Final Fantasy 7 25th Anniversary Celebration Broadcast.
