This is not the first?

This can no way be the first FF VII remake/remastered game that have come out and been released?? I could swore I saw even a couple years ago there was a Final fantasy VII remake out... with better graphics then the PS1 version. Where is those games? Were they deleted from Steam? This game is not even a month old on Steam and I saw this remake version many years ago I think even before covid pandemic.. so they deleted those game(s) from Steam and released a "new" remake version on Steam that cost 90 Euros that so I have to pay 90 euros to play FF7 with better graphics?! I can understand 60 euros for a Triple A title but 90 euros is abit extreme for a game. (that is even a remake that was released many years ago and now even re-released) 90 euros is equilevent of about 90 US dollars btw or 120 canadian dollar.

You're just reading things wrong. Not sure how to be honest.

As for the old version, not hard to find either.

"Part 2" would be FF7 Rebirth which is slated for console release next winter.

That's the same graphics and looks as the PSX 1997 version though. That doesn't look like a remastered/remake. It looks like a ported PSX to PC, and someone said the PC version was released 1998 so why make another release to PC of the exact same game when there already is a 1998 release(?) Confused?

Also, if this is Part 1, of the "Remastered" FF7, what game was the 2020 PS4 release, if not remastered? I mean. what is different between this release and the 2020 PS4 release?

Intergrade was a DLC sidestory that features another character not seen this early in the original games story. It was included in this version of the game instead of being a separate download. It is not part 2 of the remake.

Part 2 is currently scheduled for console release sometime late 2023 and will be titled "Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth" Hopefully a PC release will come not long after that.

How many times do you have to be told? This is the remake. The PS5 version which is the upgraded version of the PS4.

What is so hard to grasp? This is the first of the series, the other two releases coming later for the remake.

So if you want to play the original remastered version of FF7 you need to play the 2020 PS4 remastered version.

If you want to play a new DLC sidestory thats never been released before for FF7 you play this 80 euros Steam game, that is a part 1 of a part 3 series (and if each part is 80 euros each, that is 240 euros for a full game)? Am I correct?

Again, to clear it up:

1997 = release of the original FF7 on consoles
1998 = release of the original FF7 on PC
2012 = release of an updated/remastered FF7 on PC
2013 = release of the 2012 version on Steam
2020 = release of "Remake", which is part of the new Remake / Rebirth / Re??? trilogy
2021 = release of the PS5 version of the 2020 version with updated graphics and DLC
2021 = release of the 2021 version on Epic Store as an exclusive
2022 = release of the 2021 version on Steam

So if you want to play the "remastered" version of the original game, you have to take the 2012/2013 version, which happens to be the version of the original FF7 available on Steam.

You seem to be deliberately trying to misunderstand what is being said. There is no remastered version.

The 2020 release is the same as this game minus the Intergrade DLC. If you just want to complain about the price there are plenty of discussions you can join already doing that.

Yes THIS IS ANOTHER remake, not the only remake, which have been told here many times, and it's not an remake, it's a NEW game with a DLC like another guy here said.

So if this is the 2020 game with an added DLC; how is this part 1? Then the 2020 is clearly the part 1, if this also have an DLC (extra content) on top of the 2020 game, it should be part 2. (part 1 from 2020 and part 2 with the extra added content in this 2021-version-released-2022-on-steam)

Anyway, I want the upgraded graphics version of the game. Not the PSX 1997 graphics.

[Komarimaru]

I give up, you're deliberately ignoring what's being explained, even when told in the simplest of terms.

[Azuwi]

And as far as I can tell, the "2020" PS4 Remake/REmastered version doesn't have the PSX graphics, which is therefore the first "Remastered" remake of FF7, what my question topic asked about. It's cleared now.

I'll just take it as THIS and the Epic store game is a ported version from the PS5 game which in turn is a upgraded DLC version from the PS4 version.

So, my question is, can the PS4 version be played on the PC? Or have it been released, or possible to play it on PC? (I am talking about BEFORE this game released on Steam AND Epic).

[Katitoff]

The actual "remaster" is a mobile game, FF7 ever crisis, isn't it?

No. The PS4 2020 release is THIS EXACT GAME minus the "yuffie" DLC.

If you want to play a new DLC sidestory thats never been released before for FF7 you play this 80 euros Steam game, that is a part 1 of a part 3 series (and if each part is 80 euros each, that is 240 euros for a full game)? Am I correct?

It has been released before, it was released as part of the PS5 upgrade, you could either buy the DLC and your PS4 version gets upgraded to the PS5 version (I believe) or you could buy the PS5 version which is this exact same version you get on Steam or Epic

There hasn't been a "remastered" version of Final Fantasy VII, there have been many re-releases and ports with "enhancements" as in "cheats" to make the game a little easier (although it really wasn't that hard) and you can buy these for most modern consoles (Switch, Xbox One, PS4)

The one linked above for about 10 euros? (I see it in GBP so £9.99) is the original PC release, just ported over to Steam with some extra bells and whistles, like a character booster, cloud saves, and achievements, Its still not a remaster, just a re-release.

The only way to really play the "original" is to play the PSX original from 1997.

You must be confusing the Remake with remastered versions of FF7, since there is a huge difference between a remastered game and a remake of it.

FF7: Remake was first released for PS4 on April 10, 2020.

Tell me the difference? Doesn't both have better improved graphics? Does both have the same story? Or is this story different?

It is true that both of them indeed have improved graphics, but both remaster and remake are fundamentally different things.

A remastered game is is a revamped version of the older game, with better graphics, audio etc. Sometimes remasters have additional content, but the base game is the same.

A remake, is the game being recreated from the beginning; the game is recreated, and can be significantly different than the original game.

FF7: Remake is based on the original but it has different graphics, gameplay and presentation. Not only that, but the story turns out different than the original.

Some people say that FF7:Remake is more like a sequel, and they are not wrong.
