Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion comparison

A new video has come in for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion that serves as a graphics comparison. With it, we’re able to see just how much this version of the title compares to the original.

The video goes to show just how much effort Square Enix is putting into Reunion. The company did say that everything is now in HD – as you’d expect – and the models have been upgraded. It seems to go even beyond that, though.

Live A Live pre-order

A major RPG is making its way to Switch this summer in the form of Live A Live, and ahead of its upcoming release, we’re creating a pre-order guide. This post will also compile any and all retailer bonuses if and when they are announced.

Live A Live technically isn’t a new game as it originally came out for the Super Famicom in 1994. Despite receiving acclaim in Japan, Square never released it anywhere else – until now. For the Switch edition, the game will have its first localization ever in English, and it’s being given a new HD-2D art style to boot. For those that are entirely new and haven’t heard about it previously, Live A Live offers seven unique stories with their own protagonists, time periods, and gameplay styles.

These are just two of the time periods in Live A Live. Players will also be able to experience stories in the likes of The Wild West, Twilight of Edo Japan, and more.
