Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP, 2007) is a high-octane prequel to FFVII, following Zack Fair’s rise as a SOLDIER and his tragic ties to Cloud. Its real-time combat (with slot-machine DMW buffs) and explosive set-pieces capture the FFVII world’s grandeur, while its heart-wrenching ending (yes, that ending) packs an emotional punch. A PSP masterpiece, now remastered as Reunion (2022) with modern tweaks.
