Yuffie’s combat feels a lot more action-oriented than the main Final Fantasy VII Remake game. It provides some hints as to where Final Fantasy VII Remake is going with future games, but more importantly it weaves a more solid framework of this world. The relationship between Yuffie and Sonon (and hints at story elements involving Yuffie’s father), the war between Wutai and Midgar/Shinra, and even Deepground, which is really starting to pull from the extended Compilation of Final Fantasy VII lore. So Episode INTERmission takes Yuffie and endears the player to her in a way the the original game never did. Final Fantasy VII Remake has centered on building out its world and characters in bigger ways than we’ve ever seen before. That’s not to say that Episode INTERmission lacks strength entirely however. But it lacks the strength of the moment-to-moment waves of nostalgia that Cloud’s adventure through Midgar had. It begins to lay the (deep)groundwork for Deepground, a Shinra lab built within Mako Reactor 0 at the center of the city, which became prominent with the Vincent-centered Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- PlayStation 2 game (another optional side character from the main 1997 Final Fantasy VII).
We get a better understanding of the conflict between Wutai and Midgar, which is in reality a conflict between Wutai and Shinra.
While the base Final Fantasy VII Remake game weaves between exciting nostalgia-inducing moments and new ways of approaching things, Yuffie’s brief adventure feels like it’s more about laying the groundwork of exposition and background for assorted elements to come into play later. To both its strength and its detriment, Episode INTERmission is a completely new side story. Over the course of two chapters, we get to know a character who was once just a secret optional side character in the original 1997 Final Fantasy VII. Her goal is to steal the Ultimate Materia from Shinra with the help of Avalanche, albeit a different cell of the resistance group than the ones we’ve come to know and love. Yuffie arrives in Midgar shortly after the bombing of Make Reactor 4, when Cloud is separated from the rest of Avalanche. The real gem added onto Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is Episode INTERmission, a Yuffie-centered DLC exclusive to this PS5 version of the game that explores a section of Final Fantasy VII Remake’s story from a very different angle. Episode INTERmission Review – Bring on Yuffie And there are a few new Trophies to chase as Yuffie as well. Previous players will also pop all of their last-gen Trophies, so if you already have Platinum, you’ll welcome a second Final Fantasy VII Remake Platinum to the stack instantly when you transfer your save file. And if you haven’t purchased it yet, 1) what are you waiting for? and 2) lucky you, you get the complete package with the added Episode INTERmission DLC included.
If you have the PS4 version, it’s a free upgrade to Intergrade (though the upgrade will require separate purchase of the Episode INTERmission DLC chapters for $19.99). Did I mention that Intergrade adds a Photo Mode? While it’s not the most intensive of Photo Modes, it provides some great opportunities for amazing in-game shots that you couldn’t get in the PS4 version of the game.īest of all, it’s easy to recommend. Both provide enhancements to the lighting and textures, just all around giving an already stunning look game an added boost. Performance Mode will give you a beautiful and smooth 60 fps, while Fidelity offers up a stunning 4K picture. This is still that same perfect Final Fantasy VII Remake, made better with the power of the new-generation PS5 hardware. In terms of Intergrade, our original review still stands, so I’m not going to rehash what made last year’s game so amazing. Despite the fancy new name, this is the same Final Fantasy VII Remake you know and love, it just somehow looks and plays even better than before. That’s in effect what Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is. How do you make a perfect game… more perfect? Put it on PS5 with better framerate, better lighting effects, better resolution just in general give the whole thing a boost.
