Final Fantasy 7 Revelation will keep minigames but address Rebirth’s pacing by clearly signaling what rewards you’ll get, decoupling minigame rewards from combat progression, adding a minigame-specific difficulty, and letting players skip unwanted minigames, all while preserving optional content.
Two Summer Game Fest trailers for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation (reveal and gameplay) total over seven minutes and hint at major changes: Sephiroth will be voiced by Travis Willingham instead of Tyler Hoechlin; a new Function Integrated Tactical Suitwear (F.I.T.S.) system lets party members swap outfits for different move-sets while keeping their appearance, Vincent’s Limit Breaks show unique synergies, and Cloud’s absence from parts of the party suggests altered pacing. Wutai, Yuffie callbacks, and other FF7 nods return, Sapphire Weapon may become a fightable element, and there are hints of altered spoilers in a scene potentially removing the Black Materia, plus a possible nod to the famous snowboarding sequence.
