Final Fantasy 7 Remake has changed the way gamers perceive Final Fantasy 7. Released in 2020, the game is a ground-up reimagining of the PlayStation 1 title from 1997. The remake turned static, turn-based combat into real-time, action-RPG battles while retaining the best of the original's mechanics. This, combined with a beautifully recreated Midgar, warranted a positive reaction from players. As fans eagerly await the next installment of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series, it remains to be seen if such a title can live up to the hype of its predecessor.
