It looks likeFinal Fantasy 7: Rebirthwill be getting a demo quite soon, as PlayStation has accidentally released the announcement ahead of the upcoming State of Play.
As shared by Wario64 on Twitter, a trailer for the Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth demo has been uploaded to the PlayStation Store, likely by accident. We’re getting a second State of Play presentation (almost a week after the lastPlayStation State of Play) that will be entirely dedicated to the upcomingSquare EnixRPG - we’re guessing this is where the demo is set to be officially announced.
As for the video itself, it features all the familiar faces - Cloud, Sephiroth, Tifa, Aerith, Barret, and more - and shows a mix of cinematics and gameplay. If the demo trailer shows exactly what players will be able to experience before Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth’s full release, there’s sure to be a lot to get on with, including plenty of monsters to fight and Chocobos to meet.
Aside from the demo, it’s mostly a mystery what we’ll see during today’s State of Play. We know that the Final Fantasy 7 Remake follow-updoesn’t strictly follow the originalgame from 1997 so perhaps we’ll get a glimpse into some of Rebirth’s changes. We’ve also been promised"nearly 100 hours of adventure"for the action-RPG, so there’s sure to be a lot to see.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I’m also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
