Final Fantasy VII Remake features a ‘Classic’ mode that more closely replicates the 1997 original game’s turn-based battles.
Announced at Tokyo Game Show and summarised on Twitter, Square Enix explained that classic mode handles the action side of Final Fantasy VII Remake’s combat automatically, requiring the player to only use the command menu to issue attacks. While this isn’t identical to the original game’s combat – in which characters remain stationary between actions – it does replicate the menu style of player input.
