The Final Fantasy 7 remake is finally out in the wild, and seeing mostly glowing praise. In GamesRadar's review, Heather said it "succeeds at hitting the difficult balance between staying faithful to the original story and introducing elements that make it feel so fresh and new," and "offers engaging experiences for longtime fans and newcomers alike."
If you're itching to jump back into Cloud's big ol' clunky boots but don't have a PS4, there's still quite a bit of hope for PC gamers. A recent trailer for Final Fantasy 7 remake seemed to tease a PC port, although without official word from Square Enix, the best we're left with is hopeful speculation.
