Video game studios are often so mysterious that it is easy to forget that the games are made by people. A beautiful view in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth was once just a base on which Square Enix developers eventually created entire worlds. That’s why it’s always fun to watch behind-the-scenes footage of early stages of development and see how far a game has come from conception to completion. Square has released a video that shows some of these early concept stages for Rebirthand you will definitely get an idea of how much work goes into creating such a breathtaking world.
The one and a half hour long video about the development of Rebirth looks at how Square recreated the iconic world, enemies and characters of the original Final Fantasy VIIMuch attention has been paid to the question of how New edition And Rebirth environments that were just a screen in the source material into something much bigger. But even these expanded areas had to be built from scratch, and before they were part of a beautiful open world, they looked more like something out of an old Sonic the Hedgehog Game from the 90s. It lacks textures and shapes, and many of them are made up of placeholders like checkered patterns or flat surfaces. But it gives the team a foundation to build on, and the before and after is pretty impressive.
This is just one of the many things the team at Square Enix addresses in the video. When you’re done Rebirth and want to dive deeper into all the details that went into redesigning the game, check out the full video below:
