Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII

Developer: Square Enix

An action RPG prequel to Final Fantasy VII that puts players in the boots of Zack Fair, Crisis Core blends fast-paced, real-time combat with RPG progression and a slot-like DMW system that can trigger limit breaks, summons and bonus effects. Missions and boss encounters are structured into bite-sized episodes ideal for PSP play, while cinematic cutscenes, voice work and a lush soundtrack deliver FF7 nostalgia and emotional storytelling. Combat rewards timing and materia setup, and high-difficulty bosses demand careful growth and materia management. A compact, cinematic portable entry that balances spectacle, challenge and fanservice for classic JRPG fans.
