Aerith and Cloud in Final Fantasy 7 Remake

At present the site shows only a ten-character silhouette. Observers can clearly make out Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII), Cloud (Final Fantasy VII), and Prompto (Final Fantasy XV). The outlines of Auron (Final Fantasy X), Zidane (Final Fantasy IX) and Rinoa (Final Fantasy VIII) also appear, though their shapes are less distinct.

Unsurprisingly, many fans of the original fighting games are disappointed — Square Enix’s record with live-service mobile projects is uneven. Earlier this year the publisher closed a Kingdom Hearts mobile spin-off and likewise discontinued a lesser-known Nier mobile entry.

“I know people hate mobile and gachas but Opera Omnia was so good,” one Redditor reacted. “I have little faith this will be anywhere near as good but I can dream.”

“Square, please, at least remaster Duodecim,” another commenter added.

“I’d be excited if SE didn’t have a history of [end of service] in surprisingly quick succession,” a third commented.
