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.
