Interview: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Tells a New Story With a Classic JRPG

Naoki Hamaguchi: So, in terms of Cissnei in particular, speaking on the Remake series as a whole, so Rebirth and Remake, we definitely wanted to incorporate characters from Final Fantasy VII Compilation titles.

On the day the reviews for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth came out, I was lucky enough to sit down with the game’s director, Naoki Hamaguchi.

As someone who has already beaten Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, I can say that the reimagining is not only just as magical as the original, but it somehow manages to surpass it in many ways.
