Final Fantasy VII Remake Gameplay Shows Gym Minigames & Limit Break; Dev Explains the Squats’ Inclusion

With the massively-anticipated release of the Final Fantasy VII Remake coming close, Square Enix is trickling down footage and information about the game. 

The official Twitter account has been showing off some interesting clips, and you can see them below.

The first showcases the gym minigames, including squats and pull-ups.

We also get a comment from Producer Yoshinori Kitase, who explained why this kind of minigame has been included.

Another video shows one of Tifa’s limit breaks in action. It’s the classic Somersault.

Limit breaks can be executed when the limit gauge is full, and they look really spectacular with the remake’s new visuals.

Lastly, we get a screenshots showing a rather spooky and familiar scene. Suffice to say, the game is looking really good. 

If you’d like to see and learn more about the game, you can check out a charming TV commercal from earlier today, the latest trailer, the western box art for the game, plenty of beautiful screrenshots, and recent gameplay with the reveal of the Classic Mode.

The first game of the Final Fantasy VII Remake will launch on PS4 on March 3, 2020. No other platforms have been announced so far.
