Square Enix and the team behind Final Fantasy VII Rebirth have revealed brand-new key art of Aerith standing in front of the Highwind. Longtime fans might recognize this as key art from the original game that appeared in advertising.
Alongside the new key art was information surrounding Under Junon, Kalm, and Mythril Mine. These are three locations you will visit early on during your adventure. The Highwind is the ship famously utilized by the party to navigate throughout the world of Gaia. Based on the story of the original, the Highwind will not be a usable vehicle in Rebirth. It unlocks on Disc 2, so it will likely be saved for Part 3.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the sequel to the critically acclaimed Final Fantasy VII Remake. It is the second entry in the Remake Project, a collection of three games recreating and reimagining the story and world of Final Fantasy VII. The first game was initially announced at E3 2015 at the Sony Interactive Entertainment’s PlayStation show. Final Fantasy VII Remake then launched worldwide exclusively for PlayStation 4 on April 10, 2020. Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, an expanded and enhanced version of the PS4 title, was announced for PlayStation 5 in the following year.
Then, news of the second title was revealed at the Final Fantasy VII 25th Anniversary Stream in June 2022. News went silent until this Summer when a new trailer showcasing the world and gameplay was released at Summer Game Fest. A tremendous amount of information has been confirmed, including confirmation of non-playable Vincent & Cid, a “new episode with Zack,” the file size of the game, and more.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is set to launch exclusively for PlayStation 5 on February 29, 2024. The title will be exclusive to the platform until May 29, 2024. A Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, and Collector’s Edition are available to pre-order now.
