The Final Fantasy series is currently experiencing a renaissance, and as it continues to remake the iconic seventh installment, Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis is gearing up to celebrate its 1.5-year anniversary with flair. Starting March 6th, players can expect an array of new content, including fresh gear, challenges, and skills, all teased in the latest trailer.
The trailer offers a glimpse into what fans can look forward to, such as a complimentary set of gear as a campaign gift and a free, exclusive five-star weapon for Cloud, the Umbral Blade. Additionally, the new event, Odin: Vanquisher of Souls, kicks off on the same day, promising exciting gameplay.
To commemorate the 1.5 anniversary, new stylish gear will be introduced for beloved characters. The first reveal is for Sephiroth, who dons the striking Cape of the Worthy, part of the Vestments of the Worthy series. This series will be unveiled over four weeks leading up to the anniversary event.

To aid players in tackling the anniversary challenges, a new battle ability called Overspeed will be introduced. This ability is crucial for the upcoming Odin-themed escalation challenge, highlighting the ever-growing presence of Final Fantasy on mobile platforms.
It's worth noting the irony that, despite numerous new entries in the series, Square Enix consistently revisits the seventh installment. However, given its status as a fan favorite, this focus is understandable.
