A wave of new screenshots for the its release date in April.
In the world of Final Fantasy VII, these Summons are called forth from magic spheres called Materia, which are forged from “Mako” energy drawn from the Planet’s life force. These creatures can range from cute, cuddly critters like the chubby Mog or fearsome forces of nature like Bahamut or Shiva. Due to the original Final Fantasy VII’s transition to 3D graphics, these Summons were some of the most well-ed in the series, with dazzling attack animations that could take up to a full minute for certain monsters. Naturally, the remake is expected to feature these in a new, high definition light befitting their original splendor.
The latest screenshots of Final Fantasy VII Remake show off the three Summons that are available as pre-order bonuses. These include the fluffy Chocobo Chick that comes with all versions, the cactus-like Cactuar that is included with the 1st Class Physical Edition, and the feline Carbuncle that is available with the Digital Deluxe Edition in the PlayStation Store. You can check out the screenshots of all three of these creatures in action below along with their artwork:
