For many longtime PlayStation fans, the original Final Fantasy VII was a groundbreaking, genre-defining experience. We’re naturally eager to learn more about the fully reimagined Final Fantasy VII Remake, which dramatically updates both the gameplay and the storytelling of the beloved original.
So when we received this latest batch of screens we asked our friends at Square Enix if they could provide some context for a few of them. Take a peek at the captions below these screenshots, then browse the full gallery below.
Weapon abilities
Each weapon has its own unique weapon abilities that increase in proficiency the more they are used. When an ability’s proficiency level reaches the maximum, that ability is then learned by the wielder and can be used when wielding any weapon.
Here we see Cloud’s Buster Sword upgrade screen. The different options allow you to improve the wielder’s status or increase the number of Materia slots available.
Switching to Classic mode
Classic Mode can be activated by selecting “CLASSIC” from the difficulty menu. In Classic Mode, party members will act automatically, with the ATB gauge filling up as they do so. In this mode, the player only needs to select which abilities, magic, and items they will use their ATB charges for. This brings the feel of the gameplay closer to the menu-based battles from the original FFVII but with the amazing immersive graphics of the remake.
It is also possible to revert to direct control at any time during Classic Mode by pushing buttons on the controller.
Using characters’ unique abilities
The triangle button activates each character’s unique ability. Cloud’s unique ability is to switch between different fighting styles. He can switch between “Operator Mode” which has a good balance between attack and defense, and “Punisher Mode” [pictured] which is geared heavily towards offense. In Punisher Mode, Cloud’s movement speed is reduced, but his basic Square button attacks are upgraded to even mightier blows.
Summons
Chocobo & Moogle use their special move “Stampede” to run down the enemy with a herd of chocobos.
While equipping Summon Materia, you will be able to summon a powerful ally once the special summon gauge fills up. Summons will fight alongside you automatically on the battlefield, but you can also use your own ATB charges to have them perform special abilities. Just before they leave the fight, your ally will unleash a powerful special move!
Assess Materia
Assess – Materia that allows you to use the Assess ability. When you use Assess on an enemy, you can see their resistances and weaknesses, making it easier to defeat them in battle.
Darts at Seventh Heaven
You can play darts at the dartboard in Seventh Heaven.

I never got into the FF franchise, but I always heard that FF7 was the best - I've played it briefly, but never beat it myself.
The graphics for the remake look fire though! I'm definitely coppin'.

FF9 still in the GOAT tier for me
I’d prefer this honestly
Most of the problem in newer Final Fantasy games is the story and characters, they just not as engaging and memorable compared to older titles.
Yeah this has to be a big reason why, XII was good but I gave little fukks about the characters or plot and there was potential with XV but too much missed opportunity with the backstory
My favorite FF are VII and X and they just happened to have the most engaging characters and theme for me, all of VI-X were like that
The only reason 7 is called the best is because that's the first Final Fantasy game most people played.
7 was the first real main stream JRPG hit in America. Prior to that it was mostly a niche game genre.

Debating whether to get this at launch or wait for the PS5 version. Game drops in March so along with TLOU2 in May, brehs will be eating all Summer.
