The duration of a video game is not an invariable entity, it depends on the design, the player’s skill or what each person decides to invest in secondary tasks, among many other factors. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is by definition a long game: considering that it is an open-world JRPG, Square Enix has not only nurtured the product with a robust main story, which It takes place over many hours, but has also filled Gaia with countless mini-games and quests. To cite the example, the card game ingame that is included can keep players hooked for hours on end.
How long does it take to finish the main game, what if you are a completionist?
Although it depends on the player’s skill and the chosen difficulty mode, the main story can be completed in about 30 hours, as long as the focus is only that, without entertaining yourself with anything else. MeriStation completed almost all secondary tasks in the first three regions, but the need to reach the analysis publication date prevented the same pace in the remaining six regions. The duration in this case was 64 hours. Those who want to discover all the secrets will have to invest more time, perhaps just over 100 hours.
Some may wonder when Final Fantasy VII Rebirth ends. As Square Enix has already confirmed, the game concludes in the Forgotten City, the equivalent to the first CD of the original PlayStation version (it came on three discs).
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth continues the story of Cloud, Aeris, Tifa, Barret and Red XIII, who meet new allies and more than one enemy along the way. The title follows the same path as Final Fantasy VII Remake, so reinterprets and expands the story and the context of the characters. Last week’s MeriPodcast focused on the Square Enix title.
