Final Fantasy 7 - CD2

Developer: Square (Square Soft)

Final Fantasy VII unfolds across cinematic discs on the PlayStation 1, and Disc 2 plunges players deeper into its sprawling, character-driven RPG. Expect turn-based ATB battles using the inventive Materia system, large boss encounters, and exploration that alternates between tense story beats and open-ended side quests. Disc two heightens the stakes with memorable set pieces, emotional writing, and a soundtrack that defined a generation. Its slower moments reward careful party management and materia builds, while major boss fights demand tactics and timing. Playing it today evokes strong nostalgia for the era of CD-based JRPG epics.
