Fan favourite Closing Fantasy VII character, Vincent Valentine, bought a little bit of highlight within the launch date reveal trailer for Closing Fantasy VII: Rebirth. Nevertheless, that doesn’t imply you’ll get the possibility to manage the hockey-haired ex-Turk. Sq.-Enix has acknowledged in a Q&A posted by Recreation Informer that, whereas Vincent will be part of the occasion, he will likely be relegated to the sidelines.

This isn’t the primary time a beloved Closing Fantasy VII character bought held teasingly out of attain. Pink XIII joined the occasion on the tail finish of Closing Fantasy VII: Remake, however was unplayable there. It’s assumed that that is going to be an identical case for Vincent.

This selection is considerably fascinating since Vincent was widespread sufficient to get his personal spin-off in 2006 with Dirge of Cerberus: Closing Fantasy VII. I’ve to marvel if Vincent’s introduction will likely be made within the latter half of the sport and if he’ll be playable within the remaining sport of the remake trilogy.

I don’t have robust emotions for Vincent, in some way. It’s been so lengthy that I don’t bear in mind my remaining occasion setup in my final playthrough of Closing Fantasy VII, however I’m fairly positive Vincent wasn’t in it. That’s a bit unusual since I lust for vampires, and Vincent has the look. I feel what torpedoed my enthusiasm for him is the truth that he has no motivation within the authentic narrative. Then once more, many distinguished characters had no motivation for risking their neck. Buncha damned do-gooders.

The true query for me is that if Cait Sith will likely be a playable character.

Closing Fantasy VII: Rebirth launches on PS5 on February 29, 2024.
