Remember when Square Enix tried to get those interested in Final Fantasy VII Remake to buy Butterfinger to unlock DLC a month before the game came out? The promotion was only available in the US, but now it appears to all have been in vain as every item you could unlock is now listed for free on the PlayStation Store. Yep, you never needed to buy those bars of Butterfinger, Baby Ruth, and Crunch. They still probably tasted pretty good though.
Head on over to the PlayStation Store right now and you'll be able to start downloading the Midgar Bangle, Superstar Belt, Shinra Bangle, Cornero's Armlet, and Mako Crystal completely free of charge. We have read reports that this free DLC is also available across EU storefronts, but we haven't been able to locate it at the time of writing.
So, there you have it. Free content for Final Fantasy VII Remake players and you didn't have to spend a penny on chocolate bars. Just think of the calories saved! Will you check any of this content out in-game? Let us know in the comments below.

Wow, no comments yet... why not be the first?
I don’t like peanut butter so WHO WINS NOW, EH?
Not really a loss for me. I got my Tifa theme months earlier than other people, and got to enjoy a delicious Butterfinger in the process.
I'm glad they're just releasing the DLC to everyone. Hiding stuff like that behind candy bar purchases was a dumb idea.
It came with packs of pasta in the UK.
I love Butterfinger.
@JimVectis I got a few packets of Tifa noodles myself.
To add insult to injury, the Butterfingers promotion had originally couched the redemption of these DLC items as an "only available while supplies last" sort of deal.
Nearly every aspect of this is simultaneously silly, stupid, and sleazy, but whatever. The Tifa theme is still absolute top-tier, and I don't much begrudge the pair of Baby Ruth bars I bought to get it.
Is this the same dlc they are advertising on pot noodles and super noodles in the UK?
I've not been in any hurry to jump in on part 1. Planned to wait til its complete but it will fill an empty PS5 gap some point down the line
@Orpheus79V “Tifa noodles”, eh? Is that what the kids are calling them these days?
I plan to replay the game for the plat when the ps5 patch arrive 😃
It's not on the UK store. Only US it seems.
Butterfinger?
Listen I know the missus is getting on a bit but we have other alternatives.
Journalist location is UK.
Failed to notice or look into the Batchelors noodles promotion running all the same items eh?
"Only available in the US"?
Cracking journalism.
@JM0549 Bit harsh! I'm pretty sure it was Super Noodles anyway!
Besides, Liam's clearly talking about being unable to find the free content on the PS Store, not on packaging!
What? I had no idea that it was available in the UK. I got really irritated and held off on buying the game because of this issue (And also the poor textures). Not one site I read ever mentioned the UK could do this. I even occasionally buy those hot water pasta/noodle packets. Well, let me know when they're up for free here so I can finally play this game.
@get2sammyb he said the promotion was only available in the US, which I guess it was with Butterfingers, but Batchelors ran the same promotion here on their Super Noodles and Pasta 'n' Sauce. Saying that, the original commenter was a little harsh 😅
