Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Tweaks Mini-Games Approach

Square Enix tweaked its approach to mini-games for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, maintaining respect for the original experience.

Square Enix's Director Naoki Hamaguchi discussed the feedback received on mini-games in titles like Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth. Despite calls to reduce side activities, the team prioritizes honoring the original game. In the upcoming installment, players can choose not to engage with mini-games, with combat-centric rewards now accessible through other means.

Final Fantasy 7 Revelation offers combat-oriented side content for progression rewards, making gameplay more comfortable. The game introduces difficulty settings for mini-games and an option to skip them to minimize frustration. Hamaguchi emphasized maintaining the abundance of mini-games while enhancing player experience.
