Final Fantasy VII, the original PlayStation classic from 1997, is coming to PlayStation 4 in spring 2015. It’s a port of the Windows version that was released in July 2013.

There’s not much more to reveal here. The Windows port of FF7 didn’t add anything significant to the game. Higher resolution, smoother performance, achievements. The only thing close to a gameplay change is a character booster that cuts down on the need for grinding.

Mostly it was just a polished version of Final Fantasy VII. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

We have had a considerable number of high-profile game releases this year, but none so far have had as much hype behind them as Phantom Blade Zero. The source of all that hype was a 2023 trailer highlighting its fluid kung-fu-derived sword combat. Considering that, at the time of writing this piece, there are over 700,000 concurrent players on Steam alone, on a weekday no less, I think it's safe to say that the hype has converted into gamers actually showing up for the game. I have sunk around 10 hours into this game today, and so far, it has been nothing short of an absolute masterclass in action combat.
