As the Final Fantasy series continues to thrive in its renaissance, particularly with the ongoing remake of the beloved seventh installment, Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis is gearing up to celebrate its 1.5-year anniversary in grand fashion. Starting March 6th, players can look forward to a slew of new content, including fresh gear, challenging new skills, and exciting events. A sneak peek of what's to come was revealed in the latest trailer, hinting at the festivities awaiting loyal fans.
The trailer teases an array of upcoming rewards, such as a complimentary set of gear as a campaign gift, and a free, exclusive five-star weapon for Cloud—the Umbral Blade. The highlight of the celebration is the new event, Odin: Vanquisher of Souls, set to kick off on March 6th. This event promises thrilling challenges and rewards for players eager to dive in.
To mark the 1.5th anniversary, stylish new gear for your favorite characters will be introduced. The first character to receive a fashionable upgrade is Sephiroth, showcased in the trailer donning the striking Cape of the Worthy, which is part of the Vestments of the Worthy series. This series will be unveiled over the course of four weeks leading up to the anniversary event.
To aid players in tackling the anniversary challenges, a new battle ability called Overspeed will be introduced. This ability will be crucial for the upcoming Odin-themed escalation challenge, ensuring that players have the tools they need to succeed. Final Fantasy's presence on mobile continues to grow, offering fans more ways to engage with the series.
It's worth noting the irony that, despite numerous new entries in the series, Square Enix frequently returns to the seventh installment. Given its status as a fan favorite, this is hardly surprising. While you await the exciting events of the 1.5-year anniversary, consider exploring other great games. For instance, check out Stephen's review of Black Salt Games' Dredge, a unique blend of fishing simulation and eldritch horror, to see if it's the right fit for you.
