OPENING MOVIE OF THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE REVEALED

LONDON (14 February 2020) –  Square Enix Ltd., today revealed the opening cinematic movie for one of the year’s most highly anticipated games, FINAL FANTASY® VII REMAKE. The video showcases the eclectic city of Midgar, backed by newly orchestrated, breath-taking music. In FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE, players will be drawn into a world where the Shinra Electric Power Company, a shadowy corporation, controls the planet’s very life force. Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra’s elite SOLDIER unit now turned mercenary, lends his aid to an anti-Shinra organisation calling themselves Avalanche.

Further concerts will take place in London, Paris and Barcelona with more European dates and countries to be announced soon. The concerts will feature music from the game’s soundtrack performed by a majestic orchestra and full chorus, all conducted by GRAMMY®-Award winner Arnie Roth known for his work on Distant Worlds: music from FINAL FANTASY.
