LOS ANGELES (Oct. 4, 2023) – At Tokyo Game Show 2023, SQUARE ENIX showcased a broadcast event for FINAL FANTASY™ VII REBIRTH and revealed nearly 30 minutes of footage from the Grasslands area, a vast, verdant expanse of land rich with mako. These plains are dotted with various points of interest to discover when exploring, such as remnawave towers, which help players gain their bearings and give information on the area, moogle houses, excavation spots and more. There are also wetlands and chocobo ranches where chocobos are raised for crossing the difficult terrain.
The program highlighted the breathtaking and expansive world of Grasslands with plenty to do outside of battles, including the ability to swim and paddle through deeper water, catch Chocobos and visit the Chocobo Ranch, take on side quests and visit the lively town of Kalm.
