“Final Fantasy VII Rebirth builds upon its predecessor for a brilliantly polished behemoth of an RPG that belongs in every PS5 owner's library.”

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth delivers an expansive world with rich environments and strong PS5 hardware utilization, but suffers from repetitive side quests and weakening character dynamics. The game is recommended for fans of open-world RPGs, though its narrative execution may disappoint those seeking tight storytelling.
