A new iteration of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete has been revealed, offering fans a fresh look at the CG film that continued Cloud Strife's story years after the original PlayStation game. This release promises to delve deeper into the established narrative, providing additional context for long-time followers of the iconic RPG.
Advent Children Complete originally served as a direct sequel to the seminal Final Fantasy VII, picking up two years after the planet-saving events of the game. The film explored the lingering trauma and consequences of the Geostill virus outbreak, while introducing new threats and further developing the relationships between Cloud, Tifa, Barret, and the enigmatic Sephiroth. Its narrative is considered a crucial part of the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII.
This new version is expected to integrate elements from 'Episode Denzel,' a side story that offered a glimpse into Denzel's perspective and his personal connection to the events of Advent Children. By potentially weaving this content more directly into the main film, the updated release aims to provide a more cohesive and comprehensive viewing experience for fans invested in the intricate lore of the Final Fantasy VII universe.
With a MAL score of 7.71 from over 148,000 voters, Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete has remained a significant piece of the franchise's multimedia expansion. This latest iteration underscores the enduring appeal of the story and its characters, offering a new way to engage with one of Square Enix's most beloved worlds.
