- Final Fantasy VII Rebirth reviewed by Michael Higham on PlayStation 5.
"Final Fantasy VII Rebirth impressively builds off of what Remake set in motion as both a best-in-class action-RPG full of exciting challenge and depth, and as an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long. After 82 hours to finish the main story and complete a decent chunk of sidequests and optional activities, there's still much to be done, making this pivotal section of the original feel absolutely massive. Minigames, sidequests, and other enticing diversions fill the spaces of its vast and sprawling regions, painting a new and more vivid picture of these familiar locations. But more than just being filled with things to do, Rebirth is often a powerful representation of Final Fantasy VII's most memorable qualities. It does fumble the execution of its ending, getting caught up in the mess of its multiple twisting timelines, but new moments and the overarching journey manage to evoke a deeper sense of reflection in spite of that. So, for as flawed as parts of how this classic has been reimagined might be, Rebirth still stands out as something both thrilling and unexpectedly impactful."
They gave it a 9
Thank you sir
Thats shocking
I'm cool with that. Can't always have a 10
Why ruin it just for likes you loser
😅
If Link can cut grass on his way to Ganon, our boy Cloud can play some Wave Race 64 on his way to Jenova.
And some 1080 Snowboarding on his way to the Northern Crater.
Exactly. That was the dumbest part of this review. 🤦🏿♂️💯
No one complained about Geralt playing Gwent with anyone with a pulse while the world is ending either.
That N64 Dolphin still haunts me😅🐬
This reviewer probably doesn't like Yakuza games
Everyone on the development team should be proud of creating this amazing accomplishment
This is true. You are right.
And then ashamed that it has taken 4 years to release the first disc worth of the 4 disc game....so what another 12 years until they finish the final disc??
@@joeyjames5691dude, the content in this game alone is more than the entirety of the original ff7. You already know the story, why are you mad that they’re just giving us more?

I'm going to spend months playing this game aren't I?
And you will love every second of it

Knowing it got 6 regions to be totally explored for all main and side quests... yeaaaaaaah!!!

That's nothing. I'm going to spend well over 100 hours getting the platinum for Rebirth and mastering all of the mini games in the Gold Saucer.
80 hours isn't even that much.
He said he didn’t finish all the side content so 80 hours is just fine.
Not to mention I’m sure he played it on normal. If you want a challenge play it on dynamic difficulty.
@@Halcon_Sierreno another reviewer said they spent over a 100 hours and there was still more
Overly Convoluted - that's Nomura's signature! Well, that and belts. Lots of belts.

Haven't been this excited for a Final Fantasy game in years and hopefully Square continues to give it their all for this series.

Lets be honest...we loved the game as kids and just want our youth back :)
Someone was talking about WoW on Reddit and said something that hit me right in the gut. "You don't miss the game. You miss who you and your friends were when you played it."
Amen !!
So double tech and tripple tech from Chrono Trigger :D
I hope this will inspire then to remake that as well with the quality of this.
No triple techs yet. Perhaps in part 3
Please don't, they gonna change Chrono Trigger story and make it become Kingdom Hearts just like they did with it FF7, a hot convoluted mess.
@@yolulu Ok but what if they do? Will someone force you to sit there and play it? XD
@@yolulu”gamers” are perpetually upset and aggravated all the time now. No reason to be this upset about a game 😂. Get a grip

Some J Cole art right there
10/10 would refund again.
It got 93 on metacritics, it been a while since final fantasy got a 90s score on metacritics. 😮

Please don't tell me we're going to need a Kingdom hearts style bulletin board to keep up with the story
Unfortunately, it looks that way...
We knew that from the first game.
If you havent played the games in the FF7 Compilation (or at least follow the story), there will be some things that will be new to you (in addition to the new timeline stuff).
Tetsuya Nomura never fails to disappoint :/
@@IXkuponomura is not the writer nor is he the director stop blaming nomura for everything also how about playing the game and formulate your own opinion instead of basing it around a review?
Yuffie singing the victory tune like Barrett did in first game! 😂😂
So, they’re doing this whole diverging timelines to give us hope that THAT one magic cheat code everyone wanted as a child might be a reality?
care to explain? :)
@@piepo5002 it involves a certain character not dying. Back in the day there were a lot of rumours that you could use a cheat code or do specific actions to prevent this character from dying. Loads of games had these wee rumours going about as we didn't have the internet then. We did have it, but it was very basic and not as informative as today.
@@craig291086games like 2 decades old every one knows what happens
Probably. Character with party will die, character with Zack will wake up. Character both lives and dies. Classic Schrödinger’s Character lol
@@tristanward9937 dude don't spoil the date between Barrett and you know who
Why 9 tho it deserves a 10
because playing cactuar crush as aerith is not fun at all
@Luigiplaya246 or just only 2 levels
One of the best final fantasy games ever made
Had a strong feeling the multiple timeline story direction would continue to be a mess. Hopefully it's somewhat cleaned/ cleared up for Part 3 😅
Game of the year incoming
Yeah no the open world is bad. Said by almost every big critic site
@@gamerforlife3946 You don't need a big open world to win GOTY
Not game of the year yet. More games have yet to be released this year.
Nah, elder ring
@@keithframe3489that's a dlc ffs lol
Easily 2024's GOTY
Infinite Wealth does everything it does but better and doesn’t even have the benefit of being a remake of a classic. Better character bonding, better side quest, better minigames, no forced minigames, no lame open world with towers everywhere.
@@Mohgenstein lol
This is actually a great review, IGN. So glad to see game reviewers not just fawn over a game.
So this is a sequel/continuation to the remake game that came out a couple years ago?
Yes, it’s a trilogy, this is the middle
The original was 3 discs long. Square is trying to make this game fit into 3 releases.
@@johnathonscutt4743 cool, 🙏🏼 thanks
Yes. And the Remake is a sequel to the original game.
@BlackLynx4607a
Source: Trust me bro.
4:17 looks like Suzie Yeung got inspired by Robbie Daymond (Prompto in FF15) to do the victory theme
Barett does it all the time in the 1st part of the whole remake
That is what we call a “writers choice” lol.
Totally agree about the ending. The entire story and plot development is very well explained up until the ending chapters where it is so implicative in a way that basically just verbally spams a jargon and lexicon of “destiny intertwined with fate”. The annoying part is that there IS reasoning for this, the game just takes a turn in its final moments of not explaining that in a down to earth way.
Finished the game just now. What a game. Took me around 80 hrs. Have never seen a game with such high quality production (been this long)
Those who complain about the graphic have not play this game. Thid is hand down top 3 most graphical game on ps5. Whoever finished the game can tell u.
Still blown away how squareenix manage to make this game.
What a beautifully written review. Kudos!
It’s a *9* guys, it’s GREAT , that means they probably did the *BIGGEST SPOILER* end of part 2 really well.
Worth the hype, worth the wait !
Great yes but not a 10
@@katman2192Well it doesn’t deserve it with how boring the world and divisive the ending is
You actually trust IGN 😂😂
@@Jsobo28The game can be gotten early
@@gamerforlife3946 its 2024 bro everything is uninspired
Is Rebirth, a different story path compared to the original? Like an alternative timeline?
It's like star trek (2009).
@@nightfears3005what does that mean
Without spoilers the ending is still pretty much the same, just a lot more confusing and they don’t let the emotion of what happened hit the way it did in the first game
@@yumikimiko398 is there gonna be one more game or is this the final game?
@fabienzaca it's a trilogy so one more after this one.
You really need to start uploading in 4k.
Yeah it's mind blowing that they don't honestly.
Its not that serious
Really nice review 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.
This game is a solid 10.
This is going to be amazing; strap in and enjoy the ride. When are we going to find the time to finish all these amazing RPGs? What a great time to be into gaming!
Beat the game last night (around 80 hours, skipping over half the side content). This review is pretty accurate 👌
6:37 Did you just call Optional Sidequests a "Small Blemish" to the whole game? LOL.
I'm taking a hard guess here. FF7 Rebirth did NOT End the whole series. But ended in a Cliffhanger. That's why the narrator
kept saying "Convoluted and messy execution of the story". Didn't square mention that this will be a 3 game series?
So excited!! My first time pre-ordering a game
Well one things for sure , it looks stunning.
Game of the year in my opinion
Loved Rebirth can’t wait for the next game🎉
This is totally not fair! All these reviews are coming out for this game while the rest of us have to wait another week!
Pfft. I’m waiting for PC. I’ve got at least 12 months and 1 week to wait.
got a ps5 just for this. agree with most of what you said, but you are 100% right with how they messed up the ending because of how needlessly convoluted it was. instead of having an extremely emotional impact, it instead it leaves the player thinking "huh? wtf just happened?" while fighting the final boss.
it doesnt though because it's so plainly obvious to understand that cloud is just seeing Aeris.... how you can't tell that is beyond me.
I'm so ready!! First game I've ever pre-ordered
I'm about to preorder as well. Ironically, the original was my first preorder!
@@chrisstewart9828 that's amazing!
The remake was my first pre-ordered game. Rebirth is my second.
crazy what that game on the ps5 is going for on Ebay.@@chrisstewart9828
Who pre orders digital games. You think they are gonna run out of downloads?
Scores are coming in at 8-9. Multiples sources say it's the mini games that take away from the pace and the ending is a mess.
8 is the lowest recorded score. It's mostly 9s, and 9.5s. Some 10s. Out 40 reviews only 2 gave it an 8. This game seems like a 9.2 or 9.3
the ones calling the ending a mess is properly the same people complaining about remake being a sequel to the OG and changing things. they just mad.
93 on metacritic, idk about the 8’s lol
some people have qualms about the ending, but IIRC only one reviewer REALLY took issue with it
Q@@Vartazian360
Wonderful review. I'm ready for this masterpiece. TY Devs and IGN!
Dunkey nailed it best in his review of ff7 remake. "In the OG you grind the combat to get to the story, in this game you grind the story to get to the cool bossfights" and its no different here. 9/10 combat with 5/10 story. Especially the 3rd act just gets so conviluted and confusing.
@@InfiniteEdge006how is he part of the problem bro quit coping

Got it preordered, Can’t wait until it comes out 👍🏾
game of the year has arrived
But Skull and Bones already arrived last week

@@Chitown-zf4gshero? All you have to do is drag the bar to the right, takes one second ffs!
@@Chitown-zf4gs They also don't comment a IGN score...
The quality of the recorded footage is a 2/10. Pixelated, Low Bitrate and 1080P
(Yes 1080P, 11 Years after the first 4K console launched)
My big question is: Is Tifa able to suplex giant monsters in Rebirth like she could in OG FF7 though?!
Sabin did a whole train though :/
This is not a revision ....its a total reimagination. Call it what it is!
It's an expansion and a sequel.
it is literally on the ff7 remake synopsis on the box, they are calling it what it is. They always have.
@Karlach_ it's not. What kind of sequel re threads a story already told... wtf is wrong with you people..
@@MrKnaivesit’s a sequel in the sense that the sephiroth we see in the game is from a past timeline where all the events of the original final fantasy 7 up until advent children took place, where sephiroth went back in time to change events.
Yes from now on everyone has to say total reimagination, revision is just completely misleading, only one of them is correct
94 on metacritic...thats huge lol
Actually less and something isn’t right there as you open opencritic and see less plus most critics giving it 10s aren’t even known while well known ones are giving it 8 or 9s
@@gamerforlife3946 Stop replying to everyone and get a life
Michael Scott from The Office: “That’s what she said!”
Even ff16 didn't made it to 90s, it bee a long time since final fantasy get a 90s score on metacritics. 😮
@@notslucis9977 Actually it did but lost it
Fun to play but bad storytelling, pacing, and ending? Sounds exactly like the 1st one.
Saying that it fumbles the ending really worries me
They have a better review for FFVII REBIRTH that’s definitely much better in my opinion goes to show that Rebirth is going to be Better than Remake
“Convoluted and undefined” that’s numoura.
It was actually Kitase who wanted more drastic story changes and Nomura who said to stay as close as possible to the original.. and Nomura isnt the story writer as well...
@Coldsilfur4 bullsh1t mr.nomura attorney. Nomura is the director and those ideas of multiple timelines, villain that are anti-hero and positive ending are taken form Kingdom Hearts which is it's own creation. He imposed his ideas on Nojima (oke of the worse screenwriter in the industry) the storyline who has never been the smartest in the room.
@@alessioseminara3254 source?
that's every JRPG
Nah fr, he has said as much in the interviews. KH is his crazy world and that’s it. He did truly want to leave FF7. It was Kitase full stop. Everyone wants to blame Nomura because of his association with KH but not this time guys.
Maybe this new direction seems flawed just because they planing to make everything clear on the last part?....what do you think?
I'm hoping we get dedicated side missions for each character that rewards the player with a particular double tech materias etc. It would serve the game well be a be a breath of fresh air if they were each well written and unique a la mass effect.
Rebirth is a great game for sure but how come nobody talks about all the constant pop-in, frame rate issues, the crap lighting, the textures being rough. We bash other games for this stuff but this game gets a pass.

^ THIS! Performance mode still looks terrible on PS5 (post--patch)
You're going to wait 2 years
@@ChrisClemmons LMAO, you might want to get your eyes checked if you think that looks terrible.
Let me sum the experience up for ya. Great voice acting, great gameplay, graphics, and music. World is fantastic. The story is horrendous rotting dogshit that spits in the face of every single piece of FFVII that came before this, from the original to Remake.
@InfiniteEdge006 making a lot of incorrect assumptions there little buddy lmao
Great graphics? Lol
8:59 So they say it is not very impactful due to the several timelines but still give it a 9?
This part of the story is making me nervous that they will chicken out and not do the death that needs to happen.

@@blake343exactly, sephiroth knows killing aerith led to his downfall and may try to avoid it this time.

Did you miss how they were gushing about the entire game except the ending for the rest of the review
Started my channel just to stream this game, so pumped for it to finally come out!
Got 2 questions for this game
1. Is this game support save import from previous game (like mass effect trilogy/witcher trilogy/trials of cold steel series) maybe we can get special items, boosts or etc
2. What kind of exploration in this game will be, a fully open world like skyrim or large area like metro exodus
1. You will get a couple of summon materias for completion of FF7 remake and intermission.
2. It will be semi open world, more like metro. Areas that open up more as you explore/continue throughout the story.

As an FF7 fan I’m happy you gave it a 9 but that was a shitload of problems you had with it. You guys had essentially 0 problems with Persona 3 Reload and that still got a 9 as well
Hey maybe they're saving the reveals for the final game you ever think of that?
you all excusing square for turning one game into three games is wild.
@Youngfan005 reported!
Unfortunately the convoluted parts, instead of being edited, were expanded on. Not going to lie, most games from Japan go that rout.
Wait so dramatically changing the story in the first installment had overly confusing and convoluted ramifications later on?? YOU DONT SAY
They gave final fantasy 16 a 9 as well. Neat;)
