About “FFVII Ever Crisis”
“Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis” compiles all the FF7 games into one neat little game for mobile devices. This includes the main storyline and also the spin-off games. “Ever Crisis” will retell the full complete story of Cloud and his adventures in Midgar. The game will be Free-To-Play but it seems that you’ll need to buy future chapters to continue just like “Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition.” This has not been confirmed as Square Enix has not revealed how the game will be monetized.
