So you thought that Square Enix turned their back on Sony in favor of the almighty dollar by making FFXIII multi-platform. Well, fans of the Final Fantasy series may have their prayers answered. FFVII might be making a return to the spotlight with either a remake or a spin-off (like that of Crisis Core). Fans have been begging for this ever since Sony unveiled a tech demo of FFVII at E3 2005. The original may also be making a return by being distributed through PSN and XBLA. These rumors have gained some steam by Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto saying, "You can look forward to the upcoming invite-only fan event DKS3713 , where we'll have a major announcement that will shock the fans in attendance." The Square Enix DKS3713 Event will be taking place on August 2nd. So, mark the date and check back soon.
Final Fantasy VII 1997 exceeds 15.5 million units sold worldwide as of February 2026, reinforcing its legacy as the series best selling title.
I’d love to know how many units have been sold of all the Final Fantasy VII franchise games, including the original, the remakes, spin offs such as Crisis Core, and mobile games Ever Crisis. I bet a fair few copies.
Modern day publisher be like: "Failed to meet sales expectations. Pivoting to live service."
It's an absolute legend of a game. And I honestly really love how the remake trilogy is shaping up so far.
Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most iconic video games of all time, with it helping to changed the RPG landscape when it was released in 1997.
If you already own it... There, I saved you the click on a deliberately misleading article.
I bought the game yesterday on steam for $4 because Square Enix is trying to replace it with a version that has no mod support.
Prior to yesterday, I had no idea the game had so many great mods until people started making a fuss out of it.
u get the switch 1 version of the og ff7 for free if you own 7 remake for the switch 2.
lol.
But BG2 didn't emerge in a vacuum, and in a recent chat with Slandered Gaming it emerged that—while we can thank BG2 for a lot of our favourite RPGs since—we have a whole other game to thank for BG2. That'd be Final Fantasy 7, which lit a fire under BG2 director James Ohlen to go all out with the game's structure and companions, per Trent Oster—who worked on the original Baldur's Gate and has since become CEO of Beamdog, the studio behind the BG1 and BG2 Enhanced Editions.
Baldurs Gate 1&2 were my games back in the day on PC. Icewindale and Neverwinter Nights as well
We will see
if this game comes to ps3
xbox will lose the console war
Poor Xbots
Poor Xbots, I said this once and I will say it again, the PS3 is still the console to get for FF, if you have BC, you can play the old ones and FF13 is still a PS3 exclusive. Poor Xbots, when this game is announced Aug. 2, you know you'r in trouble-Poor Xbots.
Poor Xbots
How many times will this story be approved? It's the same damn info as the other 2 topics. Quit approving this. I'm going to go post a blank topic with just a picture from FFVII and see if it gets approved.
Sorry but, this is like the 4th time this was posted
