Square Enix Reveals New Info For Final Fantasy VII Remake - E3 2019

 Following the recent announcement at the Final Fantasy VII: A Symphonic Reunion orchestra concert, Square Enix has revealed even more info about the highly anticipated Final Fantasy VII Remake.

During  the Square Enix E3 press conference, producer Yoshinari Kitase and other presenters spoke in detail on how combat will work in Final Fantasy VII Remake.

A hybrid gameplay system that merges real-time action with strategic command-based combat called Tatical Mode. There are two ATB bars and once they are filled from landing enough attacks, the action will slow to a crawl and allow Cloud to perform an array of abilities. Aditionally if Materia is equipped Cloud can cast spells. Using items in combat will also use up a portion of the ATB bar.

The highlight of the trailer is our first look at Tifa Lockheart and of course let's not forget Marlene.  We get to see a small glimse of Tifa in action. The trailer concludes with a glimpse of Sephiroth. He tells Cloud to "Hold on to that hatered".
