Crisis Core: The nostalgia-filled launch trailer for Final Fantasy VII Reunion

Square Enix has unveiled a launch trailer for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion with the remaster just a few weeks away. In this comparatively brief three-minute video, a lot has been crammed in: CG scenes, in-game cutscenes, combat footage. But nostalgia is unquestionably the key component in this situation. This trailer is sure to bring back memories if you played the PSP version of the first Crisis Core game.

Indeed, Reunion’s main selling point will be nostalgia. Even though it uses entirely new assets, it still plays like the action RPG you may remember from years ago, complete with incredibly awkward character interactions.

Where did we learn this? For preview purposes, we’ve been playing the PS5 version, so read on for our impressions.
