In a Shock Twist, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Will Have Music on PS5

This one isn't so ridiculous, there's new music. Good stuff

I hope it has graphics as well

Its so innovative

In other new Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is the sequel to remake. These guys are definitely laughing when they send these updates out. Next they will saying cloud will be in the game. Haha

Eh. Why bother?

More interestingly RPG, they (Sabotage) are doing The Sea of Stars backerkit survey now. So if you want to preorder that physically on any platform you can do so, but hurry. Survey closes 7/3, and though you will not get the physical copy on day one, they will send you a digital code as well. You don't even need to match platforms with it, so You can technically get it on two different platforms for one price. Even Xbox owners can play it.

These developer comments are really weird.

I swear certain departments at Square do things so backwards and have literally no idea how social media works lol.

Well, as bizarre as these updates are, they've got people talking, which i suppose is the idea. Trailer incoming!

Music? Hard pass then

I don't know why Push Square continues to push this confused narrative. Obviously, it is all leading to a trailer at Summer Gamefest. Also, both Final Fantasy VII's twitter and Facebook have removed their cover photo and left it mysteriously blank.

I mean you call it silly etc… but you dont HAVE to make an article about every twitter power regarding the remake

Do people read nothing but headlines anymore? This update makes perfect sense. They could have kept the original music with no additions, but they're clarifying that there will also be original songs.

What more shocking is how low you have become. They just answer the questions (which they probably made up themselves) to give information about there will be new music arrangement. And your title of there will be music in the game is quite misleading. You have been doing a series of rubbish posts based on these in the last few days.

I hope they have beautifully designed meals. Local delicacy, chocobo egg omelette

These articles have become more odd than the actual FF7 marketing

I hope there will be bongos and bagpipes!

@mrbone literally, whatever attracts traffic.

Bizzare Pushsquare articles continue

There, fixed it for you.

>community demands updates for game
>SE: "we have nothing to announce at this time"
>community becomes irrated and continues to demand
>SE: "we will provide updates when we are ready to do so (also why would we try to direct attention away from the newest FF game at this point)?"
>community continues its tantrum
>SE: "fine, we'll give you what you want"
>SE provides the most basic of updates for weeks
>community still throwing tantrums

SqEnix said it wasn't ready and they announced updates when they were ready, fanzines like this demanded more information, and you got all what was ready (aka the basics). Not SqEnix's fault it's fans are all whiny brats who can't wait until after 16 releases (in 2 weeks) to gear about the next game.

In tomorrow's update, we'll learn that it'll use a controller.

@naruball I don't even read the headline, just head straight into the comments and post the first thing that comes into my head.

An here I was hoping for a first in triple A gaming, a silent game! what a disappointment Square.

To paraphrase Hideo Kojima, once you recognise the reasons for these exposures, you will be ashamed of your words and deeds 😉

This is such a weird grouping of "reveals" for a game. Oddest way to go about building hype I've ever seen.

But will our controllers rumble when we play Final Fantasy vii rebirth?

Im still waiting for the update where they confirm that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is in fact, a video game.

@Matroska that would be somewhat better in this particular case

I'm loving the fact there trolling us whoever came up with this was ***** bored and wanted to just mess with people 😆😆😆😆😆😆

I have insider info that the game will require a TV to be played

This is started to get a bit uncomfortable, now. It's a useful bit of info, nothing more. But HAHAHA aren't they WEIRD with their different approaches and culture to fan engagement hahahah weirdos hahahaaa.

You guys are better than this.

If they keep posting these inane updates they're bound to break their limit.

@NEStalgia That's the Climhazard of using social media too much.

@Czar_Khastik Woah there buddy, that's a crazy leak right there

Square will definitely get you now for having such insider info and leaking it on a public website such as this one

Is anyone else more excited about this over Final Fantasy XVI, or is it just me?

@naruball you're right but come on, that "Question" part -regardless of the topic- looks and feels silly.

@GamingFan4Lyf Given the choice between a giant dump taken on the legacy of FF7 vs Dante of War......the FF7 dumpster fire wins every time for me.

@naruball Exactly, I would've understood this article if the tweet was just, "This game will have music" but it says, "This game will have new music." Like that is a big difference.

Now this is too much. Characters and story I could believe...but music??? They are being ridiculous. How big of a file size will this game have? 1TB??
Square Enix is full of bs.

@CthulhuFhtagn why? It's a remake. New music was not guaranteed. It's a legitimate question. And a legitimate answer was given.

This is too farfetched to believe. We should all tread carefully with this one. Next you'll tell me Cloud is the main character. Talk about breaking the internet.

In a shocking twist, Push Square continues to show how gullible it is by continuing to do daily non-stories for Square Enix’s PR machine.

I honestly find PushSquare's daily articles about the updates more tiresome. Like, we get it, sarcastic headline, womp womp.

It's a remake of an existing game; it is new information to know that there'll be new original songs specifically composed for the remake, albeit not thrilling new information. But sure, let's milk a one sentence tweet for approx. 200 words of an article on a daily basis.

@mariomaster96

Beat me to it. There is the possibility that it doesn’t, it might just be a “thought-game”.

@scpnightwing

I agree, it’s a little bit “no-news”. I’d like to see some more features and critical pieces, but appreciate that these do require more work.

@DarkTron it's a build to a trailer reveal...... They are ready. Find out for yourself tomorrow

Everyone for the love of GOD.

it's so damn obvious these vague comments are merely to get people paying attention as it builds right into Summer Games Fest. Day 7 ( FF"7") lands right on Geoff's show.

It was never about the comments it was about the PR build to the event.

Also - FFXVI coming soon doesn't matter. It's more attention to the final fantasy brand. FFXVI has a pre launch event in 4 days. They will drop a demo. Attention goes right back to it with the added fact that everyone on the planet who just saw rebirth will be wanting to get their hands on any FF that's available...... Cue FFXVI that will have pre-orders and a demo out.

@jmac1686 holy crap thank you. I was reading each article thinking I've gone mad. Why else would they do daily vague answers RIGHT before Summer Games Fest if they didn't have a trailer dropping.

This is really remarkable; It may even be stereo if we are lucky.

@Blackmagehobbit the real question is, will PS5's hardware be enough to handle the volume settings?

Fun is now outlawed. Sammy will be shot at dawn.

It was fun the first time around, now it's just become sad for pushsquare. Kudos to Square Enix for going the extra mile.

These sly devils are building up to their FF7 Rebirth NFT announcement, I know it. This is some 5D chess they are playing on us, and we are not ready.

I have to agree with others that this is pretty bad on Push Square's part. While some of the updates for Square Enix are a bit odd, this was a legitimate update about the game saying that it will have new music. Instead of treating it like a legitimate update, it is considered a joke. They didn't just say it would include music. It would include NEW MUSIC.

With all due respect, Sammy, you unfortunately failed on this one.

@knowles2 Didn't SE try that once? IIRC it didn't go well.

@naruball I mean the way they put 'Question' above the information they share. are they answering actual questions people have? seriously? that's very nice.

It says something when even the sarcasm is starting to tire.

@NEStalgia I'm taking it you didn't like FF7 Remake?

I like the new take on everything.

@nhSnork In fact, there is a rumor in the internet that the disc will contain the legendary Sony's S-SMP sound chip for this game; this will help the PS5 for sure.

Next stupid headline:
Shocking news: ff7 will have visuals as well!

Tbf you got the headline all wrong anyway, the question from the tweet was will there be NEW music added to the game, but you span the article as is if it was asking will there be any music in the game.

So it wasn't a pointless tweet from them after all but this site made out like it was, and then backfired.

@GamingFan4Lyf Well, I'm in the "I wanted a modernized remake like they originally promised rather than an alternate timeline" camp and I'm not the biggest fan of the gameplay simplification bit my biggest complaint isn't really that, it's splitting a single game into a trilogy to milk it part that really annoys me, I just think the pacing and padding are unnecessary destructive just to boost sales. But compared to "I can't believe it's not Kratos!" The spinoff with a number? It's GOAT material. 😂

@Blackmagehobbit Are people today really that ignorant about tech? I could believe people would believe that 25 years ago but today?? 😯

~Question~

Will Final Fantasy VII Rebirth be a game you can purchase on PS5?

~Answer~

Yes you will indeed be able to BUY Final Fantasy VII REBIRTH on PS5.

I don't know how anyone else feels about this, as I haven't seen anyone else talking about it. But it feels disrespectful to Uematsu in regards to the music.

If it's the same as REMAKE then it's mostly ditching his iconic tunes, to only have them appear almost as pisstake rearranged extras.

I don't know if the new composters were instructed to do this or it came from them, but it feels like they mocked his style of composition in REMAKE.

Yes, he had relatively simplistic arrangements compared to modern fully trained composers, but they actually did their job and resonated with the players, I doubt the new tunes will in 20+ years.

It just makes them come look like elitist snobs who didn't want to sully their CVs with doing proper arrangements of the work of an untrained composer.

@NEStalgia I'm not being serious dude (LoL). I wrote this just because it sounds as weird as the statement that a game will have music; However, it is not impossible to find crazy mob in the internet since there are people that really believe earth is flat.

Snark is a poor man’s wit.

@ManifoldCuriosity how is it click bait they are just putting a story on the q and a from their twitter. there isn't really anything click bait about it. i mean every site uses click bait anyways to get you to click the article.

@twitchtvpat please tell me you're joking.

@CthulhuFhtagn Yes, it's very likely a question that people have considering how music is such an integral part of Final Fantasy games. There are worldwide tours of just FF songs (I almost attended one 10 years ago in Edinburgh). You don't get that with most video games.

The more they talk about this game the less I want it and the worse it sounds

I hope it has a intricate save system, where you kill things to earn a save point.

@feral1975 Uematsu himself is one of the composers and arrangers in remake, though. And the theme is entirely his. IDK about rebirth of course but remake 1 definitely involved him.

@Blackmagehobbit Isn't it? 🤔

@Blackmagehobbit damn, with tech like that, we could even get a separate slider for the voices!

So what are you getting at exactly with these cringe articles dunking on the biggest title the platform you report for has coming up? These articles aren't funny or clever, informative or anything else. It's pretty clear Square is making it more obvious NEW content is in these games. Why are you being such a whinger? Boutta unfollow this site if I see another low effort troll post like this.

I for one am glad that music will be making a comeback in the sequel. Was NOT looking forward to playing through this game with sound effects only. Music makes a big difference!

Someone better pick up that phone because I ***** called it! I knew there would be a ***** article about it.

@naruball please tell me your joking

@twitchtvpat What about my joking?

I don't understand the mockery in the article... it says "new music" not just "music". That's fine to confirm?!

Author of the article seems pretty quick to forget just how amazing it is/was that FF7 is being remade. It was requested for years and years. Rumours and speculation. Now that it's here, can we just enjoy it?

Also, the soundtrack of Final Fantasy 7 is one of the main reasons the game is held in such high esteem. So can we get someone writing articles on here that actually appreciates this fact? Where is the topic starter about which amazing FF7 songs will likely feature in Part 2, based on the locations we know are going to feature?

Not to go on, but just write about another game if this one isn't for you? It's fine to not want to write about FF7.
