The gaming world has been gripped by Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth for the past two weeks. The second in the Remake trilogy, and the first game in the remade series where what Square Enix is up to is starting to become clear. Square's hope will be a whole new generation of gamers fall in love with Cloud and the gang, and that merch like the Buster Sword necklace below will appeal to Final Fantasy 7 fans who have been around for 20 years and and a couple of weeks alike.
Available via the Square Enix store by following the link in the box below, the creators of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth have assumed we all want to wear little Buster Swords around our necks, and let's be honest, they're absolutely right to assume that. The necklace is made of sterling silver which is one of the reasons it's a little pricey. At $177.99, it's an expensive piece of video game jewelry.

Square Enix's Buster Sword necklace is based on the design of Cloud's iconic weapon used through the Final Fantasy 7 series. There are two options, both made of sterling silver but with different colors of material embedded in them.

You can choose to equip your mini Buster Sword with assist and summon materia, so a red and blue combination, or go for two magic green materia. Pre-orders for the Buster Sword necklaces are open now through the links above, and they're expected to ship in November
