New Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII – Reunion footage has been shared online today, providing a new look at the highly anticipated remaster.

The new footage, shared on YouTube by Famitsu as part of their Tokyo Game Show 2022 coverage, highlights how much gameplay, expecially combat, has been improved over the original PSP release. The footage also showcases a brand new gameplay mechanic that allows players to interrupt a boss special attack by depleting a gauge, which is definitely a welcome addition.
