The graphics of the remake are top-tier with the game being reimagined from the ground up. Players get to see complex animations that bring each character to life. Keeping in mind the turn-based strategy aspect of the original game, the devs have pushed the limits in this game.
Coming from the Polygon era of games, this title was originally a PlayStation 1 game which became a fan favorite. Square Enix understood the potential of remaking the game and changed the polygons to Hi-Definition characters and environment.
The game looks spectacular with ray-tracing capabilities and gives the game some beautiful particle effects that make the magic in the game, come to life. Players control iconic characters like Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and Aerith. The journey will continue as players meet Red XIII, Vincent Valentine, Cait Sith, Yuffie Kisaragi, and Cid Highwind.
The comparison caught the attention of many players as they took to the comments section to praise the way it looks.
Fans call this a fitting Rebirth to Final Fantasy VII

Ps5 is really a tech showcase at 400 bucks. Running games like Spider-Man 2 Ragnarok and ffvii rebirth at such good performance
