Is this rebirth but named differently?

[DuelShockX]

I havent really played a FF game before (other than brave exvius but Im sure that doesnt count) so I cant tell if this game is supposed to rebirth but under a different name or another game thats a continuation to the story of rebirth. Can anyone answer my confusion?

[AllergicToBrainRot]

No.

FF7 remake is part 1 of the story. Rebirth is the part 2 to the story.

[Hammer Of Evil]

the 1997 FF7 og version had 3 discs

the first disc played the entire midgar sequence. when they leave and go to kalm you switched to disc2.

disc2 went from kalm to spoiler.

then disc 3 was everything from spoiler to the final part of the game.

'remake' is disc 1, and 'intergrade' is some added story on yuffie ninja adventures (not from the original ff7 story)

'rebirth' is disc 2, we'll probably see it on steam here whenever the childish exclusivity deal runs out.

and there will probably be a third part as well, which hasn't been released yet, and will 'probably' tie up the rest of the game.

doesn't include any other side stories they want to launch that aren't original canon.

all 3 together make 'final fantasy 7' 2024.

Disc one was the size of remake and rebirth put together.

Yes. The other posters are trying to troll you

OG was disc one until Capital of Ancients. Disc 2 was until leaving Midgar the second time. Disc 3 was the final dungeon and side quests.

The Remake trilogy:

Remake = Midgar
Rebirth = Kalm to Capital of Ancients
(Presumably) R3 = there until the end

Remake Intergrade (this game) is part 1 of a slated 3. Rebirth is the sequel to this game, part 2 of 3. Rebirth is unclear when a PC version will be released, it is, however, available on PS5 now.

Ok so I'm assuming crisis core is a prequel to all of this then?

[Razör]

No, this is not Rebirth. This is essentially Part 1 of the remake. Rebirth is part 2, and that's a PS5 exclusive for the time being.

Yes.

Bearing in mind, prequels generally are best experienced after going through the work that preceded them in production order (ie FFVII first, the CC Reunion, then Remake, then Rebirth).

Sometimes it is fun to then go back and do in universe chronological order, which should put Crisis Core first.

Keep in mind that Crisis Core is not really a Prequel to Remake, but the OG FF7. Without spoiling much Remake is some kind of Re-imagining/Time Travel/Multiverse thing. It very confusing to the point that we dont even know if Squenix has a clue how its meant to play out.

You CAN try and use it as a Prequel to this one, but some of the Story Beats may not end of matching. Basically just dont expect any Plot Threads to connect, but a lot of them also went no where since it never continued anyways.

Why didn't they just make it one whole game? The reason for the discs in the original was because of storage.

So they can charge us three times as much.

For several times the game.

The PS1 version actually had the entire game on each disc. What was different was the cutscenes, which took up a lot of space.
