Imagine getting featured 4 times and still losing I'm the end...

Oh well, at least I got use out of the massive amount of pictures I took. Damn, I was so hoping I could win...

You’ll always be a winner to me, Mako

Was my most recent one. I was featured for the villains theme, Tifa and Aerith.

Deepl translation: "I received something from Shinra Company. I don't know who it is. I'm afraid to open it."

What's in the booooooox

A thicker version of that Shinra box is now being offered as a special prize via the FF7 The First Soldier twitter. I guess this "Mysterious Shinra Box" is a theme now. Its contents, if any, are not specified.

 

[Makoeyes987]

Will there be a witty eye-patch wearing dude to carry and deliver it to me as well?

I wonder if Sephiroth, Genesis, and Angeal will pop out of it once it's opened...

GIVE IT TO ME

Its contents, if any, are not specified.

IGN Japan tweeted about their box:

I do not care what's inside (or rather, I hope its like a boring manual or something), I just want the box itself.

I don't usually jump on a piece of advertising and speculate that it's a lead-up to something...but this makes me feel like an announcement is coming. Could be anything though. Maybe playable Red XIII DLC?

EDIT: Follow-up comment on the JP FFVIIR twitter account.

※本映像は近日公開予定のキャンペーンの一環となります。続報をお待ちください。

* This video is part of an upcoming campaign. Please wait for the follow-up report.

EDIT #2: See next post that confirms this is not DLC or sequel info.

Do not give me hope, please. But if your feelings turn out to be true, then it better come to PS5 as well.

They deleted the original tweet and updated with one that specifies the video is NOT about DLC or a sequel.

Really cool ads running right now in Tokyo (I guess for the PC port?). You can win an action plushie Red XIII with the official account

[Makoeyes987]

Glad they're actually giving Red XIII some love and spotlight to make up for 2004-2010

 

[LegendarySaiyan]

So looking forward to play as Red in Part 2

2023 is what most already predict, to be fair XD

 

[Eerie]

Yeah, but with FFXVI being delayed, part 2 could very well be, too. Although if we get it for Fall this year, then I'll expect for us to get part 2 the following year - I think I have said this here already, so nothing really new? Also this made me laugh:

That said, take everything here with a grain of salt. Not only is everything here unofficial and subject to change, but it's not totally clear where inside information ends and speculation begins. As for the source, they've been right in the past, they've been wrong in the past, like just about every leaker and industry insider.

So basically, "eh, anything can happen, really, don't hope cuz it could be wrong or right", lol, what a news.
