It's the season of live streams, with many top releases teasing major updates through video showcases. Joining this trend, Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis is set to host a Spring 2025 update livestream on April 24th. This event will mainly recap information from an existing livestream, which was previously only available in Japanese.
This arrangement has given us our first major look at the upcoming Ever Crisis Academy Event. The event amusingly reimagines the familiar faces of Final Fantasy VII as Japanese high schoolers in a parody of rom-com visual novels. You'll see Cloud stepping into the shoes of a delinquent, while Barrett's iconic arm-cannon is humorously transformed into a massive fan, among other delightful character twists.
Mark your calendars for the Ever Crisis Academy event, which is scheduled to launch on April 29th. The livestream on April 24th will provide an in-depth look at what to expect from this unique event.
Final Fantasy VII has likely never been more popular, especially with the ongoing success of the remake series by Square Enix. While some Western fans might find the visual novel-style event a bit unusual, it's nonetheless entertaining to see fan-favorite characters in a completely new light.
