Square Enix might be overdoing it, because if they had released such promotional material at the end of the Final Fantasy VII remake project, we would understand, but we’re not there yet…

We’re still 3-4 years away from the release of the third episode of the Final Fantasy VII Remake (which we think will be called Final Fantasy VII: Reunion, based on the ending scene), but the Japanese publisher didn’t mind, because about a month after the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, they released a four-part documentary series that can be watched on YouTube in both English and Japanese (we only embedded the videos of the English version).

“In this four-part documentary series, dive deep into the creation of this new, standalone RPG with candid insights and never-before-heard stories from a number of the series’ directors, artists, designers, and voice actors. This series offers fans and newcomers alike a backstage pass to hear secrets about the game’s vast and vibrant world, the powerful bonds between party members, and the rich, multifaceted stories and quests that await in this legendary adventure,” reads the press release for Inside Final Fantasy VII.

Some of the developers who appeared Naoki Hamaguchi (director), Yoshinori Kitase (producer), Tetsuya Nomura (creative director), Makoto Ise (sound director), Keiji Kawamori (music supervisor), Mitsuto Suzuki (composer), Takako Miyake (environment director), Iichiro Yamaguchi (lighting director), or Shintaro Takai (art director). … but also some voice actors like Cody Christian (voice of Cloud Strife), Britt Baron (voice of Tifa Lockhart), Briana White (voice of Aerith Gainsborough), John Eric Bentley (voice of Barret Wallace) or Max Mittelman (voice of Red XIII).

The four episodes together are over an hour long, so fans of the game might find this a nice treat after a big Easter lunch, as Square Enix touches on every aspect of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth in the videos.
