Final Fantasy VII Rebirth details Cait Sith, new locations and combat abilities
Another new update for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth arrived today, including a new
one-minute "Destined for Rebirth" trailer replete with scenes sharing memorable
and mysterious scenes and locations alike. At one point the party will arrive in
Under Junon, a struggling fishing town situated under a massive city Shinra has
built over them overlooking the ocean. Here, the new president of Shinra, Rufus
Shinra, is set to preside over an inaugural parade as they too pursue Sephiroth
for their own ends. When Cloud and company voyage to the western continent,
they'll do so aboard Shinra-8, a "cruise ship" that connects Shinra elite with
the Costa del Sol resort town. Cait Sith, a fortune-telling cat, joins the party
at a certain point during their journey. As a playable character, he can fight
independently or atop a massive stuffed moogle, which can dropkick enemies and
buff alllies when a moogle gauge is full. Of course, his abilities to still have
an element of luck, it's said. Yuffie joins the party proper after her debut in
the Episode INTERmission DLC that followed Final Fantasy VII Remake. Here, she
has a similar kit, using her shuriken to attack up close and from a distance.

Naoki Yoshida: “Maybe it’s time for someone new to work on Final Fantasy XVII”
In a podcast presented by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences called Game
Maker's Notebook, various game developers are interviewed regarding a topic in
their field of expertise. In the latest episode, Shuhei Yoshida (an AIAS board
member), who you may remember as a leading figure within the PlayStation brand
as head of Worldwide Studios, interviewed Naoki Yoshida about his role as
producer on Final Fantasy XVI and as the head of Creative Business Unit III
within Square Enix. The conversation follows the development of the game,
greenlit shortly after the launch of Final Fantasy XV, and with a team that was
simultaneously trying to build the future of Final Fantasy XIV. While the
initial staff role call only included Yoshida as producer, Hiroshi Takai as
director, and Kazutoyo Maehiro as scenario writer, the project grew quickly
after the story was largely finalized. Yoshida talks about the direction Final
Fantasy XVI chose, continuing the bend toward action after Final Fantasy XV.
However, instead of an open world, the team chose a more linear world based on
how they wanted to present the game's story. An action focus was chosen in an
attempt to corner a new audience that may not have

VII scenario, based on the original 1997 title. Following the fourth chapter in

Square Enix president: “we intend to be aggressive applying AI to development”
This year marks the first New Years' letter for Square Enix president and
representative director Takashi Kiryu, succeeding Yosuke Matsuda in June 2023.
In last year's letter, Mastuda expressed a heighted interest by the company in
exploring new technologies including NFTs. Despite being a major strategic theme
for the company in 2022, it appears Square Enix's approach has been tepid at
best. The company has previously incorporated NFTs into one of its smartphone
games, Shi-San-Sei Million Arthur, an idle game that allows you to mint NFTs out
of a character's undergarments, though the company remains noncommittal the
project, as if it were a joke. Another NFT game, Symbiogenesis, promised a
"digital collectible art project" that was intended to launch in Spring, but
spent the year stringing followers along with cryptic teases about gameplay
elements. Perhaps the non-committment can be attributed to the floor falling out
from under NFTs in the last year, with as much as 95% of the assets now being
essentially worthless. In Kiryu's letter, he remarks upon the challenges
emerging from COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing geopolitical turmoil, and inflation,
and attributes this to a "rise in uncertainty in society". Emerging and
"eye-catching" technologies such as the metaverse or "extended reality"
