A FF7 Remake Tifa Themed Ps5 Console Bundle with FF 7 Remake Part II will be available soon ! lol
Just saw Famitsu's E3 2019 FF7 remake demo gameplay session video and read some translations by Siliconera:
The Scorpion Sentinel fight features Cloud and Barret in the party. The battle flow here mostly revolves around fighting as Cloud when the scorpion is on the ground then switching to Barret when it decides to hop onto the walls. In battle you can let the AI take full control of the players you’re not controlling, but those who prefer to be more hands-on can go into Tactical Mode and select commands.

Looking forward to it.
Kitase posted a long blog post, Post E3 2019:
While the development team finish the first game in the project, we are continuing to plan and outline the overall volume of content for the second.
Due to the work already done on the first game we anticipate development of the second game to be more efficient. We have our own internal schedule and plan, but for now we’d like to focus our information on the first game in the project.
The key creative values of the core Final Fantasy series are innovation, pushing boundaries and surprising players, this project shares these same values and the development team view it as the next mainline Final Fantasy release.
For the original core members of the development team, simply recreating the original game with improved graphics wasn’t enough to get us invested and excited about remaking VII. To return, we want to go beyond the original, telling a deeper story and providing a modern gaming experience. We really want to go above and beyond what is expected of a remake.
As well as some of the core members of the original development team, we also have a dedicated in-house team of international gaming talent. Many of our new team members were young fans who played the original VII when it was first released. It’s very exciting and exhilarating to work with this talented team on such an ambitious project.
The first game in the project takes place in the eclectic city of Midgar, we chose to focus on Midgar as it best represents the world of VII as a location more than any other. Midgar is full of imagination with myriad influences and surprises around every corner.
While many people may think that Midgar is very dark at first glance, we have a design aesthetic where the city has strong elements of color and variety. The lighting and colouring we are using throughout Midgar accentuate what is unique about Final Fantasy VII’s world. We decided not to use a photo-realistic approach with the design, but instead something more stylised, honouring the artistic designs and choices of the original.
A lot has changed since the release of the original Final Fantasy VII. Back then we didn’t have access to things like voice acting, performance and motion capture, or close-up cameras outside of cut-scenes. For Final Fantasy VII Remake there’s a greater emphasis on character storytelling through the use of these techniques as well as some other new tech. This allows us to make these characters more expressive than ever, enhancing the levels of immersion and enjoyment through performance.
In Remake we are giving voice to the original Final Fantasy VII for the first time. By bringing in a new generation of actors, we hope to provide the best experience for original fans and new players.
For the gameplay, we are aiming to create a new take on classic concepts with an accessible evolution of the ATB system giving you greater action with tactical control.
The system we’ve created retains the strategic decisions of controlling multiple party members, allowing you to select from a wide range of abilities and spells. You can control your favorite character while issuing orders to others, or leave them to AI. And choose when to switch to a different party member to make best use of their unique abilities in battle. This allows all players to choose and enjoy your favorite way of playing.
Finally, yes we still have Materia. You can use it to tailor your play style and abilities.
We’ll go into greater detail on lots more gameplay elements as we get closer to the release next year. For now, I hope you are all excited by what we revealed at E3 and we look forward to sharing more news and updates with you across the year ahead.

thanks for posting it.
Yer Welcome. And new intel just dropped from Famitsu translated by Gematsu. Dialogue options and remake Tifa's sports Bra official reasoning lol:
- The watchmen of fate (the black mist in the trailer) are mysterious beings that appear before the party wherever they go. I hope that even those who have played the original game will enjoy the new elements.
- There are quite a bit of dialogue options. We are making it so the dialogue changes depending on your response, so the sheer volume of dialogue has increased.
- The Honey Bee Inn cross-dressing event is still in. We’ve made it more modern. If we made the facility like we did in the original game, the physical unease would be staggering, so that was no good…
- There are quite a few additions to the scenario. While the main story itself hasn’t changed, there are a countless number of new events. Otherwise we wouldn’t have two Blu-ray discs. (Laughs.)
- Aerith and Tifa are double heroines. One has a western-style look and the other an eastern-style look.
- We wanted Tifa to have abs, so she has an athletic body type. The ethics department at Square Enix also told us that we had to tighten her chest as not to get unnatural during all the intense action. From there we got the black underwear and fitted tank top.
- With an emphasis on immersion and exhilaration, you can fight without stress through the use of shortcuts. When you open the command menu, time slows and you can fight like a command battle.
- Each playable character has different enemy affinities.
- An item is required for MP recovery.
- For the sake of level design, we’re preparing a few new enemies where necessary.

I'm still confused why they covered her legs with the thigh highs?
Maybe Nomura-San will give some official reasoning for that too later...
I think it will be awesome indeed.
Square Enix just released more info and screenshots:
■ Story
Mako, the life energy pumped out of the planet. And Midgar, an eight-Sector city with Mako Reactors in each Sector. AVALANCHE, an organization against the mega conglomerate Shinra, which has taken control of the world through the monopolization of Mako, take the fight to Shinra in order to protect the planet.
Cloud, a former member of Shinra’s military organization SOLDIER, participates in AVALANCHE’s “Mako Reactor No. 1 Destruction Plan” as a mercenary.
The destruction of the Mako Reactor leaves a lingering reverberation in Sector 8. In a city surrounded by fire, the phantom of an old enemy that should have died sways.
Guided by the phantom of a past he wants to forget, he meets a girl.
The flower girl holds out a yellow flower. In the language of flowers it means, “Reunion.” At that moment, a black mist surrounds them—the “Watchmen of Fate.”
Now hope will travel the planet once more.
■ Characters
Cloud Strife
Former member of SOLDIER, 1st Class.
After escaping Shinra, he starts working as a man-for-hire in Midgar. His childhood friend Tifa invites him to participate in a plan being carried out by AVALANCHE as a mercenary.
Wielding his Buster Sword, he takes on the job for the reward money. He does not care about the “protection of the planet,” and sees it as only a job—or that’s how it was supposed to be.
Aeirth Gainsborough
A flower vendor living in the Sector 5 Slums. She meets Cloud on the night the Sector 5 Mako Reactor is destroyed. She possesses the special ability to hear the voice of the planet. For that reason, she has been under the surveillance of Shinra since her early childhood. She regularly visits the church in Sector 5 to look after its flower garden.
■ Event Scenes
—Cloud and Aerith’s first encounter in Sector 8. Facial expressions have become more detailed, making the story more immersive.
—Jessie gives Cloud a Materia.
—There are plenty of events that focus on AVALANCHE members other than Barrett. The bonds between members will be deeper depicted.
—Cornered in the sewers, Cloud and Tifa fight together.
—Sephiroth appears in front of Cloud.
■ Battle System
Determine the enemy’s weak points and action pattern, and choose magic and abilities to defeat them. This is a highly tactical battle system that fuses Final Fantasy-esque command-based battles with intuitive action.
—Seamless battles: no transitions between field and battle.
—Switch between characters with the press of a button. You can also issue commands to party members without switching.
—Cloud mainly fights at close-range with his sword, while Barret specializes in long-range and Aeirth main strength is magic. Each character has their own unique play styles.
By spending an ATB Gauge charge, you can use battle commands such as abilities, magic, and items.
—The major elements of the original game such as Limit Breaks, Materia, and summons have been carried over in the remake. Here is a look at Aerith’s Limit Break “Healing Wind.”
—Battle commands can be registered to button-based shortcuts. Since they can be activated at the press of a button, it is recommended for those who want to enjoy the action gameplay. Here is a look at Cloud’s Limit Break “Cross Slash.”
—When you open the battle comands, the passage of time will slow down, so even users who are not good at action games or want to take their time can play.
■ Locations
Familiar locations from Final Fantasy VII have been recreated in high quality. Several locations you could not explore in the original version have also been added.
—Cloud looks up at Mako Reactor No. 1.
—The Shrina Building entrance.
—The train headed for the Sector 7 Slums.
—LOVELESS, a theater located in Sector 8 of Midgar.

So where is the full render image of Tifa? 
So where is the full render image of Tifa?
Lol I believe this is the biggest official character design render pic of her atm:
7th Heaven PLOT in action lol
Just read this tweet on remakeTifa's PLOT lol:
"I am annoyed by bad translations so here is mine. SQEX didn’t tell them to shrink her boobs, they asked that they didn’t use a clothing design that made them flop all over during action sequences to the point of being unnatural, considering she is an active/sporty type. "
Famitsu: But the clothing was also refined?
- 衣装もリファインされていますが
Nomura: This time, visually there were things that were made quite real, and real-world clothing and accessories are being used as design references. For example, we’re referencing military (wear) for Tifa’s suspenders and martial arts and biker (wear) for the gloves. The full body silhouette hasn’t changed from the original image, and from that part, we’ve aimed to increase the minute details.
野村：今回はビジュアル的にかなりリアルに作り込めることもあり、現実にある服や小物をデザインの参考にしています。例えば、ティファのサスペンダーは軍用のものを、グローブは格闘技用のものやバイク用のものを参考にしていますね。全身のシルエットはオリジナル版のイメージから変えず、そうした部分でディテールアップを図っています。
Famitsu: Since Tifa’s chest is large, was there any consideration also given how the rendering was done?
- ティファは胸が大きいので、その描きかたにも気を配られたのではないでしょうか。
Nomura: First of all, since we wanted Tifa to have defined abs, we made her more athletic looking. And then, there were also directions from our internal ethics committee that as not to make even the most intense action look unnatural it was necessary to bind [Tifa’s] chest. And thus, for her single upper body clothing, we put a black undergarment with a fitting tank top for a fitness-conscious, sporty design.
野村：まず、ティファは腹筋を割りたかったので、アスリートのスタイルに寄せています。それから、社内の倫理部署からの指示もあり、激しいアクションでも不自然にならないように胸部を絞める必要がありました。そこで、そごくシンプルだった上半身の衣装を、黒のアンダーウェアや体にフィットするタンクトップで、フィットネスを意識したスポーティーなデザインにしています。

Staring at PLOT all day long could affect yer eyes lol even a PLOT master must know when to rest ze eyes lol
I don't get it, they have to redsign her for the remake but they release her classic look for NT? Seems like SE is shooting themselves in the foot.
And they allowed her without any sports bra too here, the PLOT intensifies lol
