South Korea’s Game Rating Committee has smacked Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth with a 15 certificate ahead of next year’s launch.
The rating doesn’t delve into story specifics (so no spoilers here), but it does again confirm that the sequel is “set immediately after the escape from Midgar,” as seen in FF7 Remake’s climactic ending. Since we follow Cloud and the gang straight after they’ve ‘beat’ another game, it wouldn’t make sense for them to blink and forget all they’ve learned. So thankfully the sequel won’t have them revert to Level 1.
