    Terrible remake of a classic game. I can't even begin to start on what's wrong. In short they took a 8 hour start to a 50 hour plus game and loaded it with tropey boring chores. Nothing about this is done right other than a decent soundtrack. Do not support this game.

This game on ps5 is the best game on ps5 by a long shot and I own all the ps5 upgraded titles there are. Ratchet is great but its same old ratchet under the hood. This...this is special. Modern and nostalgic in equal doses. Fleshed out characters (largely from the movie a few years back. Just epic. Loved every minute, and not a single bug did I bump into.

    Absolute must own. Instapurchase.

    The best Final Fantasy game i have played since FF10. Highlights are music, art direction and combat system. The DLC was fun and Yuffie's combat is probably my second favorite after Tifa.
    I had already played the original version, Intergrade only made the game better. The battle system was truly fantastic even on PS4, but PS5 running it at 60fps made it even better.

    The game itself is great, but not worth releasing on its own for full price. The PS5 upgrade is free and the DLC is $20. I've often seen the PS4 version as low as $30, so this really shouldn't be more than $50. The new content is kinda minimal. Just some new cutscenes with the crew and pretty much everything else is Yuffie. If you don't like her, this really isn't worth it.

    (+) Combat

    FFVIIR features some of the most breathtaking characters, material quality, and environments to date. The presentation excels that of most AAA games and is nearly incomparable to its original. Characters are likable, relatable, and brought to life as I became well invested in their adventures throughout the game. Although it’s not a 'new' feature as it leans heavily on its original material, it is still executed well here. Performance is outstanding as the game is extremely well developed as I experienced no bugs, crashes, or glitches throughout all my playthroughs. The combat in this game can either be overwhelming or simplistic depending on the difficulty you play at. I recommend at least trying the hard difficulty (unlocked after first playthrough) because it encourages you to plan your attacks, Materia use, and ability use. Its real time strategy reimagined in a tactical modern-day age and executed to near perfection.

    (-) Traversal
    (-) Finale
    (-) UI/UX

    Extremely outdated traversal as it is easily the worst part about this game. Slow walking, numerous cutscenes, and linear corridors interrupt the flow of the game in nearly every one of the 18 chapters. The Yuffie DLC aims to get rid of these annoyances by allowing you to sprint more frequently and glide through traversal puzzles more enjoyably. The ending of the main game has been controversial to a lot of people, but I appreciate the effort to try something new when compared to the original. The game earns its remake title instead of a remaster. However, the last 2 chapters of this game are very repetitive and frustrating in terms of gameplay. New characters are being introduced with not enough impact on gameplay and the combat begins to fade into a grind. The user interface is inept, especially the pause menu. There are way too many hidden options buried inside unnecessary menus (i.e. why is the ‘Upgrade Weapons’ menu in its own section? Just pair it with the Materia and Equipment section since all your stats and characters are shown there. Why is chapter selection hidden in the system menu? Why is the map so underwhelming and frustrating to navigate when traversing areas with different floors or height levels? etc…).

    (3/5) - Above Average - Recommended at $59.99

    Its a flawed experience, but if you make it to the end, it's worth it. I expected Yuffie to be annoying as she certainly proved to be young and immature in the original, but it gets too annoying and distracting at times, especially for someone of her skill. In addition, why the sector 7 slums again? Midgar has 8 sectors total, and the first part of the remake was to expand on Midgar, soIts a flawed experience, but if you make it to the end, it's worth it. I expected Yuffie to be annoying as she certainly proved to be young and immature in the original, but it gets too annoying and distracting at times, especially for someone of her skill. In addition, why the sector 7 slums again? Midgar has 8 sectors total, and the first part of the remake was to expand on Midgar, so why reuse the same sector when they had a golden opportunity to showcase a new sector containing an avalanche cell? This makes the new stuff introduced in the DLC seem out of place.

    It's very unfortunate that I cannot enter seventh heaven, but the way they do it is annoying; rather than putting a simple 'closed' sign followed by locking the door, they instead make a whisper repel you from the door if you try to enter it! Nero looks just as ridiculous as he did in Dirge of Cerberus, but the thing that gets me is you would expect to see the muscles move around his mouth when speaking and perhaps hear a muffle in his voice with that BDSM mask he wears, and he doesn't, which translates poorly on the PS5. And the way the new character Shields Yuffie, such as when she rides the train or has to protect her from harm looks VERY creepy; in the western U.S., this guy would have been assaulted or worse for looking like a human trafficker, or because of Yuffie's age, a pedo, and that's disgusting!

    I am also not fond of being unable to entirely control the new character and worry that this limited control will set a dangerous trend in later installments. Oh sure, you can issue commands and sync up your moments, but I enjoyed it less than having 2 or 3 party members because it feels like im in a party of 1 1/2 characters at best. This trend of limiting who you can control in your party combined with the trend of no choice in party members from the previous game will end up dampening the combat experience and parts of the story if it continues.

    However, there are pros in this DLC: Midgar looks better than it has in the past, I didn't notice any low-res textures that plagued the PS4 release; it doesn't mean they were there, but if they were, I didn't notice them. The new areas are nice to explore. Fort Condor is a definite improvement over the original, even though I didn't really care much for the improvement. It's also nice to run into familiar characters both original and new in the sector 7 slums, even if it seems a bit out of place for them to be there. Despite the somewhat predictable nature of the DLC, it is presented in a way that is satisfying to experience. The most valuable piece of the DLC is the ending, by far. Though I would have rewritten a piece to better reflect Yuffie's growth, its absolutely satisfying for all involved. No spoilers here, you have to play it and beat it in the 5-7 hours the DLC takes and experience it for yourself! I will mention that because of the value of the ending, this DLC will not age well when part 2 is released.

    If you have a PS5 and don't mind spending $20 for something that has somewhat low replayability, I would say get it and play it at least once before part 2 comes out. If not, I wouldn't go overboard getting a PS5 just for this unless your a die-hard FF7 fan or god forbid you don't even have a PS4.

    While this game's visuals and technical quality carry over from the original, so do the original deficiencies. Not only does it flows over, but it's heightened here because this 4-6 hour add-on is a rip-off for the asking price of $20.

    While this game's visuals and technical quality carry over from the original, so do the original deficiencies. Not only does it flows over, but it's heightened here because this 4-6 hour add-on is a rip-off for the asking price of $20.

    I made the argument with the original that Square Enix really wanted to turn the remake game into an interactive movie, and that's full-on display with Intermission. The actual game mechanics here in intermission are a redundant, pointless addition. Combat in ff7r, on the whole, is redundant. None of it adds anything to the package that Square Enix made here.

    Controlling characters from one objective to the next could be reduced by half and instead be infused into narrative cutscenes, and nothing would be lost. Having Yuffie play Fort Condor against other people was boring and redundant and could have just been a narrative cutscene, and nothing would have been lost. Even the majority of exploring the Shinra HQ could have easily been filled in by having cutscenes, and nothing would have changed.

    And that's the biggest problem with the project; so much of the game has a "Game" forced into a story-driven retelling. And it's here solely because if they had made this into an episodic interactive movie, the base would have flipped out. But instead of trying to make their vision into a game, they stubbornly went forward with their initial idea and jammed in a half-baked "Game."

    Intermission suffers immensely from this hamfisting the stilted game mechanics from the base while reusing an absurd amount of assets and then charging you $20 for the privilege!

    Does Yuffie's chapter add anything? Combat and game-wise? Nothing. Narratively? Plenty, but in the actual campaign and the ending scenes. But was that worth the cost you had to pay? Not even close. This should have been FREE for owners of the deluxe edition and at a maximum of $5 for everyone else. This chapter effectively turned a $60 game into an $80 game, and nothing about it warrants the cost.

    This doesn't bode well for the series, as the rest will obviously have to follow suit (as this is a singular game). I wish Square would admit they really don't care about making video games and instead go ahead and start focusing on their real vision of user-controlled interactive movies. This middle-of-the-road approach hampers everything.

    Ya consideré la primera parte en PS4 una obra maestra (y mi GOTY 2020), y en PS5 no hace más que mejorar, sobre todo en su modo 60fps ya que solo varia a que resolución escala. Encima el DLC Intermission me parece todo un acierto, creado con el mismo mimo que se esta tratando toda la obra.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake вышла чуть более года назад и в свое время я делал обзор на нее. С того времени игра, собственно говоря, не слишком-то и изменилась, а потому все написанное в той статье спокойно можно применить и к новенькой Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Intergrade. Однако в этот раз я решил быть немного строже к Square Enix.

    Сразу хочу закрыть все, что связано непосредственно с DLC

С того времени игра, собственно говоря, не слишком-то и изменилась, а потому все написанное в той статье спокойно можно применить и к новенькой Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Intergrade. Однако в этот раз я решил быть немного строже к Square Enix.

    Сразу хочу закрыть все, что связано непосредственно с DLC Integrade. В нем нам расскажут небольшую предысторию нашей старой знакомой из оригинальной Final Fantasy 7, которую зовут Юфи. Девушка-ниндзя прибывает в Мидгард в рамках помощи местной террористической ячейке, получает в личное распоряжение кохая и отправляется портить жизнь корпорации Шинра. Юфи и Сонон (именно так зовут напарника куноичи) на удивление получились живой и интересной парой, постоянно оказываясь в центре забавных комичных ситуаций. Химия между главными персонажами, пожалуй, главное достоинство дополнения. Естественно, что Юфи, что Сонон обладают уникальным мувлистом, прекрасно синергируют друг с другом в бою, применяя совместные атаки. Выглядит весьма свежо, если сравнивать с оригинальной Final Fantasy VII Remake.
    Небольшим приятным новшеством стала мини-игра, которая очень сильно напоминает кастомку Castle Fight для WarCraft III. У нас и противника есть 3 строения, определенный набор персонажей, 2 так называемых “коридора” на карте и задача уничтожить вражеские строения, попутно сохранив свои. Очень простая, но тем не менее способная увлечь дополнительная активность. На этом в принципе все, что касается DLC и заканчивается. Само по себе сюжетное дополнение получилось довольно ярким, местами трогательным, естественно с кучей фансервиса для фанатов, но коротким. Осилить приключения Юфи можно часов за 5-6, после чего игра порадует закрывающим синематиком и отправит в главное меню.

    Если не знакомы с оригиналом, то игра обладает интересным миром, с интересными персонажами, хорошей боёвкой и отличным саундтреком и неплохим сюжетом, а точнее только частью его оригинальной игры.
    Если проходили оригинал, то игра определенно стоит внимания, т.к. снова увидеть и погрузиться в Мидгар во всей его красоте и «некрасоте» стоит определённо.
    Если сравнивать с фф15, то первое, что хочется отметить, это боёвка, которая в несколько раз лучше 15 части и достойна тягаться с DmC. Также в игре присутствует разнообразная прокачка и большое количество способностей. Графика отличная, даже в режиме производительности выглядело всё отлично и стабильно работало. Но хоть графика хорошая, такими красивыми видами как в фф15 игра не обладает, из-за основной локации на которой разворачиваются события игры.
    Если сравнивать игру с оригиналом, то в ремейке не были утеряны лучшие моменты оригинала и было добавлено несколько новых. В самой игре представлена только часть оригинальной игры, из-за того, что оригинальная часть была достаточно большой, а разработчики решили расширить саму игру и рассказать более подробно. В целом игра не особо отличается от оригинала, а была лишь расширена. Финальная битва была добавлена, из-за разделения игры, необходимости раскрыть злодея и затравочки на следующую часть, как по мне концепция сюжета от этого не изменится.
    Также остальные аспекты: Саундтрек отличный и держит высокую планку остальных финалок. Побочные активности и квесты сделаны неплохо, есть и интересные. Есть и недостатки у игры, главный из которых отсутствие русской локализации, что усложняет погружение в игру. Также некоторые локации затянуты. Система чекпоинтов сделана не лучшим образом.
    Заключение: игра обязательна к прохождению для знающих английский и является, пожалуй, лучшей игрой за последние 5 лет.

    It’s very cinematic. I was caught off guard by how much I actually got caught up in the drama and excitement of the story. And the city is AMAZING. I couldn’t stop looking around at how cool the city looks. You can always see how absolutely gigantic it is. Overall, it’s a beautiful game on PS5. They put a lot of love and effort into making the world feel special.

    I expected the music to be kind of generic orchestral stuff, but they use a good variety of interesting music that I found myself impressed by. I played with a headset and highly recommend it.

    Combat gets more fun as you earn more materia and level their skills up. It can be difficult on normal difficulty, but don’t let that discourage you. The game is so cool that it’d be a shame to miss the experience...just play it on easy.

    Is it worth $70? It’s supposed to be a 35-50 hour game, depending on how much time you want to get out of it, so you’ll have to decide for yourself. I highly recommend it, but also you should be aware that it’s very linear (just like the Midgar section in original FF7). You can explore and find items because maps still have side passages, etc. but if you absolutely hate linear games, be aware this is one.

    To me it’s an awesome, cinematic experience. Some of the dialogue is corny but a lot of the voice acting is charming. If you buy it, I hope you love it too!

    Better version of an already really great game and one of my favs from last year. Yuffie DLC is nicely paced and really fun. Brings back the hype for Part 2 which hopefully will be announced in not too long.

    I played it on ps4, now I am replaying it on ps5. This game proves how a Remake has to be done. Soundtrack, dialogues, voices, humanization of characters, you fall in love with every single piece of this game. Battles are incredibles, the combos, weapon upgrades, everything so well made. It's definitely on my top 10 of all time (and I played a lot of games).

    Una versión mejorada en texturas, resolución y otros pequeños detalles de un titulo que ya de base era muy bueno,
    Su contenido extra con Yuffie añade unas cuantas horas mas bastante divertidas y de bastante calidad. Muy recomendado.

    Si jugaste en 7 original este es un obligado.

    Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade offers some visual enhancements in the areas of lighting, textures, and frame rate, improving the game's overall visual experience as well as adding haptic feedback support.

While these changes may not be significant, it is important to note that the upgrade to intergrade is free for previous owners of the ps4 version of the game. In regards to the base game, it is the same content as that of last year's release, which is to be expected since it is a definitive edition of said release. However, the dlc offers a worthwhile adventure in Midgar through the perspective of ff7 veteran character Yuffie. I thought that these dlc chapters were excellent as they offer a unique approach to combat via the introduction of synergy attacks while also providing some engaging side content, such as the Fort Condor minigame. Furthermore, intergrade seems to provide a little more context to the controversial ending of the 2020 release of the game, helping bridge the gap between this game and the next installment in the series. I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting Midgar enhanced with PS5 graphics and the new dlc. Expand

    Way too short, I expected more content since this is only supposed to be the midgar section of ff7. But they really haven't added that much.

I feel like this game exists solely for people to see high res pics of the characters they enjoyed from the original game. Because the textures outside of the character models are really bad, Sometimes ps2 level. The voice acting is okay, I expect a bit of campiness from jrpgs. I can't stop imagining Futaba from P5 every time Jessie talks though. She should have changed her voice a little bit. Might as well have Nolan North play Cloud. The lip syncing is absolutely awful and ruins the immersion. I don't get how they could mess it up this badly. Nothing anyone says looks organic, Even during the otherwise beautiful cutscenes. Battle system is pretty fun, Good mix of the original atb system and live action. The music is also well done, Captures the essence of the original soundtrack while still sounding new. Side missions are garbage filler though. There is no reason ff7r needs to be a 3 disk $210+ game other than square is trying to milk us for our money and give us as little in return as they can. Not worth full price, $40 at best. It seems dishonest to call it "ff7 remake" without distinguishing that its only part 1 and only makes it halfway past disk 1 of the original. Expand

    I loved FFVIIR on PS4, and these PS5 enhancements are fantastic -- the definitive way to play. As for the big Yuffie "InterMission" expansion -- I love Yuffie and knew I'd enjoy this, but it has far exceeded my expectations. The new music, sophisticated combat mechanics, phenomenal voice casting, and more really deal the deal.. I cannot wait for the next thing!

    I've read the complaints and disagree with them about textures and graphics. Yes this game has some blurry textures but I don't expect perfection. It also has some weird story plots, but hey, it's a Final Fantasy game and overall it kept me entirely engaged the whole time.

    I will also reiterate that the music is absolutely hands down superb. The art direction as well is something else worth talking about.

    All in all, great story, endearing and beloved characters, and an amazing game.

    Si ya en PS4 te maravillaba visualmente y su gameplay exquisito, con las mejoras en texturas y los 60fps todo es infinitamente mejor. A eso le sumas el DLC de Yuffie y el final extendido, y tenés un juego que te hará emocionar y compenetrarte con sus personajes como pocos. Un de mis juegos favoritos de toda la vida y este, el mejor remake jamás hecho según mi consideración

    Didn't like Final Fantasy 7 remake, but I still thought I should try this.
    Pretty meh.
    Awful textures.
    Laughable writing.
    Very greedy for them to price this as full game. It's a very mediocre DLC.
    They'll just continue milking the franchise into parts and DLCs.

    Not happy about this segmented releases of FF7 Remake. They're just milking the game so much. Intergrade feels and plays exactly as a FF7R DLC but asking for full price. Game still has the same issues as FF7R when it comes to pacing and other things.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A continuation of the near miss that is the remake. Everything that is associated with the original still holds strong. Characters from the main cast consistently shine until they're forced into meta writing cliches that perpetuate throughout any story that Nomura barfs out.

    Giant shadow monsters, fate, fake-out deaths, no consequences ever, characters only talking prophetic questions with no tangible solutions because he'll never actually write a satisfying conclusion? That's a full score. All intrigue, no substance and a rip off of his Kingdom Hearts series reskinned to suck the soul out of the most popular game in the franchise as a cash cow.

    Other than the load times and FPS boost, its a mediocre update that took far too long to release. The textures still are not polished and they should have been from the original release, and especially when they had the chance to utilize the power of the PS5. If you have a PS4 still don't fret on missing this one.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade shows the correct way to conclude a console generation’s journey. But beware - the Intermission episode won’t really satisfy the hunger for the next instalment - on the contrary, your impatience will probably only increase.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a complete package, telling the story of Midgar from two different perspectives. Both the main campaign following Cloud and his journey, and Yuffie's own adventure, are well told with tight and responsive gameplay along with an impressive graphical update. These tales each leave exciting questions to be answered, and this reviewer can't wait to see what awaits Cloud and his friends beyond the City of Mako.

    Final Fantasy Remake Intergrade is technically impressive. Fixing many of the original release’s technical issues while also improving the game for next-gen hardware. INTERmission offers an excellent character edition with that of Yuffie with some excellent gameplay to boot. Intergrade is simply more of the best parts of Final Fantasy VII Remake.
