With the Final Fantasy series experiencing a renaissance, particularly through its ongoing remake of the iconic seventh installment, it's no surprise that Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis is gearing up to celebrate its 1.5-year anniversary with flair. Starting March 6th, players can expect a slew of new content, including fresh gear, challenges, and skills. A sneak peek of the festivities has been unveiled in the latest trailer, hinting at what's to come.
The trailer teases a variety of exciting additions for dedicated fans. Players can look forward to receiving a complimentary set of gear as a campaign gift, along with a free five-star weapon exclusive to Cloud, the Umbral Blade. Additionally, the new event, Odin: Vanquisher of Souls, is set to commence on March 6th, promising thrilling gameplay.
In celebration of the 1.5th anniversary, stylish new gear for your favorite characters will be introduced. The first character to showcase this new look is Sephiroth, who appears in the trailer donning the striking Cape of the Worthy. This is part of the Vestments of the Worthy series, which will be revealed over four weeks leading up to the anniversary event.
**Beyond Midgard**
To aid players in tackling the anniversary challenges, a new battle ability called Overspeed will be introduced. This ability will be crucial for the upcoming Odin-themed escalation challenge, ensuring that Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis continues to push the boundaries of mobile gaming.
It's somewhat ironic that even after numerous new entries in the series, Square Enix consistently returns to the seventh installment. However, given its status as a fan favorite, this decision is understandable.
