Square Enix Final Fantasy the universe is flooded with spin-offs, many of which have received the re-release or remake treatment in recent years. In particular, the one that was probably in front of the center is the remake of the classic Final Fantasy VII. Many of the pieces in this extensive news have been re-released at some level, but one: Before Final Fantasy 7 Crisisa mobile game that never reached audiences outside of Japan.
Released in 2004, it gave players a new perspective on the world Final Fantasy VIIfocusing on the mysterious organization known as the Turks. Despite being a mobile-first exclusive Final Fantasy game developed by Square Enix, never made it to Western audiences due to technological limitations at the time. Now, with Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth done and Core of crisis enjoying a remaster, it's time to give Before the Crisis a second chance, ideally sooner than expected Final Fantasy 7 Remake part 3.
The success of Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 Reunion proves the need for more
Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 received a successful remaster prior to its release Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthproving that fans have an appetite for prequel content. Focus on Zack Fair and his role in the setting Final Fantasy VII Universe was initially a success, selling over two million copies. In addition, Zack became one of the most popular Final Fantasy characters.
Before the Crisis would fit this model perfectly. With the extensive tradition of FF7 Remakestory has become more than just another prequel—and given the ways the Turk's stories have already been fleshed out, it's safe to assume we'll learn more about them in the final part of the trilogy.
An HD-2D remaster of Before Crisis Final Fantasy 7 It is an ideal way forward
One of the biggest questions surrounding a potential revival of the Before the Crisis so it could be reintroduced on modern platforms. A free-to-play mobile format might seem logical given the original platform, but a better solution would be an HD-2D remaster, similar to Octopath Traveler.
The HD-2D format is already popular among fans Final Fantasy and other RPG franchises. It retains the essence of 2D pixel art while incorporating high-definition effects that make the experience feel fresh. The original style of the game is a real-time action style with 2D graphics as the player moves in a side-scrolling manner. Keeping the pixelated style of the characters, but clarifying and even updating the backgrounds in line with Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy would be a great way to keep the nostalgic feel of the game while bringing it up to modern standards.
Western fans finally deserve to play forward Crisis
For many fans, the most frustrating part of the Before the Crisis it was its Japan-only release. While Western audiences eagerly awaited a localization that never came, the game remained one of the few pieces of Final Fantasy 7 Compilation who never left Japan. Given how interconnected Final Fantasy 7 Remake universe has become, it seems that Western fans get to experience Before the Crisis before Final Fantasy 7 Remake part 3 reach.
The timing couldn't be more perfect. Before the Crisis provides insight into the relationships between Shinra, the Turks, and AVALANCHE. The role of the Turks expands in the latter part of the story and would serve as a way to heighten the emotional impact of important events such as those at the Temple of the Ancients.
A pre-crisis revival would complete the compilation
reissued Before the Crisis would eventually Final Fantasy VII Compilation available in its entirety to the global public. With Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core Reunion already remastered and available, Before the Crisis it's the missing piece of the puzzle that fans deserve before Final Fantasy 7 Remake part 3.
