Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis has given Elena a bit of a makeover, letting her beat the allegations of being a ‘Tifa clone’ inFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
Now, Final Fantasy 7’s Ever Crisis mobile game has introduced Elena, and she doesn’t look anything like a Tifa clone, as the fan below attests to. Elena’s character model for the mobile game looks a far cry from Rebirth, stylized in a far different manner that lets her stand far apart from her heroic counterpart.
Another tweet attests to Elena’s new design in Ever Crisis. The Turk soldier is the latest character to joinSquare Enix’s mobile game after Yuffie recently arrived in the compilation game, bringing her own adventures to bear in several new story chapters.
Of course, all this isn’t to say that Elena in Rebirth has suddenly had a redesign. As far as we’re aware, the character will still look the same next month in February at launch as she did last year in June, so she might yet draw even more comparisons to Tifa when the two inevitably come face to face at some point in the new game.
