The Final Fantasy 7 Remake series comes to Final Fantasy 14 as part of Evercold’s new raid series, and veterans of the OG JRPG are involved
Final Fantasy 14 will incorporate the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series into Evercold, its forthcoming raid series. The crossover matters because it brings one of Square Enix’s most prominent modern Final Fantasy projects into the long-running MMO, while involving developers who worked on the original 1997 Final Fantasy 7.
The announcement links Final Fantasy 14’s next major raid content with the Remake continuity rather than simply the original game. Although specific raid mechanics and story details have not yet been outlined, the participation of original Final Fantasy 7 veterans suggests the collaboration will draw on established series knowledge.
In short
- Final Fantasy 7 Remake is joining Final Fantasy 14’s Evercold raids.
- Original Final Fantasy 7 veterans are involved.
- Further raid details have not been announced.
Explained simply
Final Fantasy 14 is a video game where thousands of players around the world play together in the same virtual world. The game regularly updates with new raid series, which are challenging group activities that teams of players work together to complete.
Final Fantasy 7 is a hugely influential video game from 1997, and Square Enix recently released a modern remake with updated graphics and expanded storytelling. The same company makes Final Fantasy 14, and has now announced that the Evercold raid series will include content and stories from the Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
What makes this collaboration notable is the involvement of original developers who worked on the 1997 Final Fantasy 7. This suggests Square Enix intends the crossover to be substantial, bridging the classic game's legacy with its modern reimagining through Final Fantasy 14.
