Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Reviews
Final Fantasy VII REMAKE INTERGRADE works because it knows how to be careful. The story is told in depth within a single part instead of all at once. Each method helps the characters get better, the plots get more interesting, and the people stay involved. It doesn't feel like too much; it feels planned.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is a technical masterpiece, from the neon-soaked streets of Sector 7 to the buttery smooth combat transitions. Whether you're a returning Soldier or a newcomer to Cloud's journey, this "Intergrade" package is exactly what the Switch 2 needed!
Square Enix delivers an outstanding port of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade with beautiful graphics and a locked 30fps performance target. The Midgar story remains one of the best ever in an RPG and nicely sets up the rest of the trilogy, which is also expect to land on Nintendo Switch 2.
Final Fantasy VII REMAKE Intergrade proves that the Nintendo Switch 2 is indeed capable of hosting large-scale productions without significantly compromising the experience. The recreation of Midgar is immersive, the combat system is one of the most refined in the franchise, and the expanded narrative gives new weight to already known characters and events. Even with minor technical slips and occasional limitations, especially in portable mode, the package delivered is robust, competent, and respects the grandeur of the original work.

There’s a huge amount to enjoy about the game, be it the exciting combat, impressive presentation, highly endearing cast, fascinating adjustments to the original tale, or detailed realisation of Midgar.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is a monumental conversion on Nintendo Switch 2: the perfect way to enjoy a truly mammoth video game, capable of reworking one of the best games ever in a modern key, with some new and perhaps even controversial aspects. It's a shame about the price: after all these years since its launch, one might have expected a substantial discount.

The FF7 Remake is a masterpiece, and the fact that it's actually playable on a Nintendo console is incredible. It's been almost 6 years since the game came out, but it still holds up, and the visuals are stunning in both docked and handheld modes.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake's latest ports are superb on both the Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. Despite the framerate differences, both versions keep those stunning visuals and are finally letting players experience one of the best Final Fantasy games out there.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade adds significant quality-of-life improvements. The addition of the Xbox Series and Switch 2 is the cherry on top for series fans, but the icing on the cake is having an incredible RPG available on the go.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for the Nintendo Switch 2 offers a smooth and enjoyable portable experience. With all the latest content and updates, it’s hard to resist picking this up, even if you’ve already played it before. It’s the most convenient way to experience Midgar on the go.
And so we reach the end of this road and the start of a much, much longer one. As I mentioned before, I went into Final Fantasy VII Remake with little to no nostalgia at all, and I’m glad to say I came away happy with my experience. Yes, I have my complaints, mainly that the game often wasted my time unnecessarily or that the combat took too long to really get going. But I also appreciated the narrow scope of the game and the various story elements (which I won’t spoil or talk about here) had me excited to see what happened next, and of course, what happens next. Would I have been as lenient with the Midgar-centric scope if this was the only Final Fantasy VII Remake game I had for four years? That's not my reality, so who cares!
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on the Switch 2 is an impressive feat. The game is beautiful, stable, functional, and delivers the complete experience, including the DLC, on a hybrid console.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is everything we dream of when playing a game: experiencing a wide range of emotions throughout the journey, building empathy with the story, forming deep connections with its characters, and feeling the adrenaline rush during its action-packed moments. It is touching, it is unique, and it is the reimagining of a gaming legend that returns with grandeur to reaffirm its place among the greatest games in history.

Final Fantasy VII was a masterpiece when it was first released. Its remake is an ambitious attempt at recontextualizing the classic dieselpunk adventure for modern audiences, and it's a roaring success. It's one of the great games of a generation.

FFVII Remake Intergrade Episode INTERmission (talk about a mouthful) isn't a "must-play." The story can feel derivate until some out-of-the-blue revelations occur as you're reaching the end, and the new gameplay implementations are barely explored due to the relatively short length of the DLC. However, if you're looking for a bite-sized return to Midgar accompanied by a very enthusiastic, lovable main protagonist, and a tease for what's in store once Remake Part 2 (or whatever its name ends up being) rolls around, then you'll find plenty to enjoy with INTERmission.
INTERmission is a tremendous but short addendum that sets up the next installment with many exciting possibilities.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is one of the best works of Square Enix, and it’s worth considerable time and constant requests from fans. The entire bundle overflows with remarkable minutes of life united with a complex dynamic fighting frame and soundtrack which supplements all conceivable circumstances.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a must-have on Steam for fans of the original, regardless of how one may feel about the average port job.
Where Final Fantasy VII Remake just missed some points to be a masterpiece in our eyes, the Intergrade DLC elevates quite a bit. Hopefully Square Enix will be able to keep that up, and they will be able to curb the length of the next two games. Still, we enjoyed ourselves for the most part, and the interesting and special story of the base game manages to hold us enough to get us all the way through the game.
