While most fans would’ve known Square Enix would bring a PS5 port at some point,\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake <\/em><\/strong>is taking things one step further. Instead of just an upgraded and optimized version of the PS4 JRPG,\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade<\/em> brings plenty of new story content as well.\u00a0Not only is Yuffie, an originally optional party member, receiving her own standalone story for the remake. What’s more important is soldiers from Shinra’s top-secret “Deepground” seem to appear in the Yuffie-portion of the trailer, originally introduced in\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus<\/em>.\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> seems to be addressing\u00a0Compilation\u00a0<\/em>content before the remake’s next chapter.<\/p>\n

Assuming a certain tease from the\u00a0most recent gameplay trailer is true,\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy 7\u00a0<\/em>content makes its very unprecedented return. It’s hard to believe Dirge of Cerberus\u00a0<\/em>narrative content, and characters like Weiss, are already being teased in Remake<\/em>. Normally these details aren’t even introduced canonically over three years after the events of\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em><\/a>‘s first episode. Granted this was the purpose of a remake, to reimagine the overarching story of Final Fantasy 7<\/em>,\u00a0but\u00a0Compilation of Final Fantasy 7<\/em> content making it into\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> this early certainly wasn’t expected.<\/p>\n

There’s two major hints that essentially prove\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus<\/em> content is coming to\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade<\/em>‘s Yuffie episode<\/a>. The first hint comes from the unusual armed soldiers Yuffie affectionately refers to as “jerks.” They\u00a0very strongly<\/em> resemble the Deepground, a top-secret division of SOLDIER meant to serve as the medical division for standard SOLDIER infantry. They’re identified specifically by their distinctly lit suits and gas masks, something not seen on any other Shinra military force in all of\u00a0Final Fantasy 7<\/em> canon. The second hint comes from a certain other obnoxiously-haired character who was teased at the end of the\u00a0Intergrade<\/em> trailer.<\/p>\n

To be fair, the hint shows this character inside the VR room and not in any specific scene, but it appears Weiss is coming to\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> Intergrade<\/em>.<\/a> The most likely scenario is that Weiss may become an optional boss fight in\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em>, but he’s not just a random character. Weiss is one of the main antagonists of\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus<\/em>, and is also closely related to Professor Hojo’s Mako experiments and the Tsviets. Weiss isn’t necessarily related to Yuffie specifically, but he is indeed related to Vincent Valentine. However, the big issue with that connection is that, at the time of Yuffie’s\u00a0Remake<\/em> episode, Vincent Valentine is already in a deep sleep.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> was presumably always going to find a way to inject Yuffie and Vincent Valentine into the canon timeline.\u00a0The original\u00a0Final Fantasy 7<\/em> relegated them to side-stories that were completely optional, despite Vincent’s storyline being relatively integral to Sephiroth’s origin story. As for Yuffie’s story, well, she never really received the same treatment<\/a>, despite seeming like an important connection to Wutai and Avalanche. However, that may change with\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade<\/em>, where she’s made her way to Midgar much earlier than she ever would in the original Final Fantasy 7<\/i>.<\/p>\n

However, the implications of Yuffie’s mission landing her in trouble with Deepground seems to imply that Vincent Valentine’s introduction may be related. Deepground were the main antagonists of Vincent’s own game,\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus<\/em><\/a>, but canonically Vincent should be nowhere near Midgar at this point. Perhaps Yuffie and Vincent, as the only two party members who were optional in the original Final Fantasy 7<\/em>, are consolidating their respective introductions together for\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em>. Perhaps the best way to implement and improve on their character origin stories is to meld two storylines together, with Yuffie and Vincent crossing paths.<\/p>\n

Nomura did mention that Weiss specifically was designed as a secret boss character for\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em>, so his presence isn’t particularly narrative-pertinent. However, the inclusion of Deepground implies a much deeper connection to\u00a0Dirge of Cerberus\u00a0<\/em>in\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> than many would’ve ever expected. However, that could be the perfect way to emphasize the connection between Avalanche and Wutai, some of which was already teased in the Yuffie episode trailer. Yuffie and the new character Sonon<\/a> already meet with some kind of sub-division of Avalanche, unrelated to Barret Wallace and his crew of Avalanche freedom fighters.<\/p>\n

In fact, this may be the reason why\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> made it explicitly clear that Barret’s crew was working independent of Avalanche’s full support<\/a>. Fans should at least look at Yuffie’s adventure to Midgar and inclusion in\u00a0Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em> with a cautious optimism. It’s unclear if Vincent may even be related at all to what she is doing, and while the inclusion of Deepground doesn’t\u00a0necessarily<\/em> mean Vincent will make his way into the game, there is a plausible opportunity for him to appear. Either way, this could be a non-nonsensical way of introducing Deepground early, as a way of incorporating\u00a0Compilation<\/em> content without over-extending the story.<\/p>\n

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade<\/em><\/strong> releases on June 10, 2021, for PS5.<\/p>\n
