Cloud, Barret, Jessie Rasberry, Biggs, and Wedge infiltrate the reactor, and Cloud sets up a bomb developed by Jessie at the core.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is the first part of the Final Fantasy VII remake project and the first installment of an intended trilogy of games, acting as a partial remake of Final Fantasy VII, originally released for the PlayStation in 1997. The game covers the first final fantasy 7 remake portion of the game completely remade, using the story and characters from the original, but with new gameplay systems inspired by the original title. Each game in the project will have a volume of content comparable to a standalone Final Fantasy game.
