Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Has An Almost Shot-For-Shot Recreation Of An Infamous Flashback
One of the big draws of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is how the sequel is preparing to explore brand-new territory now that the original’s Midgar portion has been completed. That doesn’t mean that the established lore of the game is being abandoned, as one of the most pivotal moments from the 1997 RPG has been faithfully recreated and is available to experience in the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth demo.
For anyone familiar with the game, you’ll know just how important Nibelheim is to the story of Final Fantasy 7. The destruction of this town set several events into motion, but it’s perhaps best known for being the incident where Sephiroth has his heel turn, murdering the townsfolk and turning his back on the player in an iconic and fiery scene.
