To add the hype into the game’s highly anticipated release (which is slated at April 10 worldwide, by the way), the game’s opening movie was officially uploaded in the Final Fantasy franchise YouTube channel on Friday. Two versions of the movie were uploaded: in Japanese and in English.

Recently, the new theme song trailer was recently released on the official YouTube channel of the Final Fantasy franchise. The said new trailer teases the game’s theme song “Hollow” by Yosh (Survive Said the Prophet). The song is composed by the notable Final Fantasy series composer himself, Nobou Uemtasu. Aside from this, another highlight of the trailer is seeing the main protagonist Cloud Strife wearing a dress. You may watch the trailer here.

The game is confirmed and strictly will be a PlayStation 4 exclusive game until March 3, 2021. As of this writing, Square Enix has not announced if there will be an extension of the exclusivity date. The game is remake to popular Final Fantasy VII PlayStation One game released in 1997.

Final Fantasy VII follows the story of mercenary Cloud Strife, who is hired by the eco-terrorist group AVALANCHE led by Barret Wallaceto help fight the mega-corporation Shinra Electric Power Company, who attempts to drain the planet’s lifeblood as an energy source to further their profits. Apathetic to the cause, Cloud initially fights for personal gain, and for the promise he made to childhood friend Tifa Lockhart. Cloud eventually joins forces with many others to save the planet, which is threatened by Shinra and Cloud’s nemesis Sephiroth, and discovers a reason to fight for a cause other than his own.
