Before Crisis follows the Turks \u2013 a group of covert operatives working for Shinra \u2013 six years before the original Final Fantasy VII events. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII<\/strong> \u2013 a prequel set seven years prior to the events of the original FFVII that tells the story of Zack Fair. Square Enix released Crisis Core on the PSP in 2007 and it\u2019s one of the best-selling PSP games of all time. <\/p>\n<p><strong>The original Final Fantasy VII<\/strong> \u2013 the game that started it all. The original title launched in 1997 for the PlayStation 1 and follows Cloud, a misunderstood mercenary, along with a ragtag group that hopes to save the world from an evil organisation called the Shinra Corporation. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII<\/strong> \u2013 a third-person shooter that follows Vincent Valentine, a character you\u2019ll remember if you played the original FFVII. It came out on PlayStation 2 in 2006 to mixed reviews. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children<\/strong> \u2013 a movie sequel set two years after the events of the original FFVII. The story follows Cloud, who has to stop three pale villains from resurrecting Sephiroth. It\u2019s unclear how Advent Children will run in the Ever Crisis compilation, as it has never been a playable game in the past. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pockettactics\/2022\/12\/final-fantasy-ever-crisis-release-date-chocobo.jpg\" class=\"gallery\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-legion-featured-2022 wp-image-46323 lazyload\" title=\"final fantasy ever crisis release date chocobo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/themes\/legion\/dist\/images\/lazyload_placeholder.svg\" alt=\"Final Fantasy Ever Crisis release date - Cloud speaking to a yellow Chocobo, there's a red and a blue chocobo in the background\" width=\"550\" height=\"309\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pockettactics\/2022\/12\/final-fantasy-ever-crisis-release-date-chocobo-550x309.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a> <\/p>\n<h2>What is the Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis gameplay like?<\/h2>\n<p>Square Enix released a short trailer that shows the combat in the original Final Fantasy VII chapters will be similar to the action combat seen in the remake. It\u2019s unclear right now if there will be a turn-based option to make the game more faithful to the original. Square Enix has not shown off any gameplay from the other titles included in the compilation as of yet. <\/p>\n<p>A&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.famitsu.com\/news\/202103\/17215910.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Famitsu<\/a> interview with the game\u2019s creative director, Tetsuya Nomura, revealed that Ever Crisis is a free-to-play title with gacha mechanics (cheers, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gematsu.com\/2021\/03\/no-future-dlc-plans-for-final-fantasy-vii-remake-intergrade-final-fantasy-vii-ever-crisis-chapters-will-be-free-more-tidbits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gematsu<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p>The game\u2019s monetisation system revolves around weapon unlocks, and you can expect to see plenty of content that didn\u2019t feature in the original game, including special weapons with their own costume sets. <\/p>\n<p>Final Fantasy VII\u2019s story is split into ten separate chapters, with the Midgar escape occurring sometime in the third. Ever Crisis will also feature some background story for Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier. <\/p>\n<p>Beyond that, the game boasts special dungeons to explore and battles to engage in that go beyond what was featured in Final Fantasy VII. It sounds like a fairly novel reimagining, much like Final Fantasy VII Remake, though it\u2019s good to hear that Ever Crisis still uses familiar musical arrangements from the original title. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pockettactics\/2021\/02\/final-fantasy-vii-ever-crisis-release-date-crisis-core.jpg\" class=\"gallery\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12619 lazyload\" title=\"final-fantasy-vii-ever-crisis-release-date-crisis-core\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/themes\/legion\/dist\/images\/lazyload_placeholder.svg\" alt=\"Zack Fair atop a train facing off against some soliders\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pockettactics\/2021\/02\/final-fantasy-vii-ever-crisis-release-date-crisis-core.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a> <\/p>\n<h2>Will we get a Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis Switch port?<\/h2>\n<p>Square Enix hasn\u2019t revealed any plans to release the title on any platform other than iOS and Android, but we think it would be a perfect fit for the Nintendo Switch!
