can you believe it the day is here april 10 2020 final fantasy vii the remake is now
finally available after over a decade of waiting depending on how far back you want to count all
the speculation a fully modern version of final fantasy vii is here in japan where all the best
stuff happens square enix has been rolling out all kinds of neat things to promote the new
old favorite the biggest one by far is that the square enix cafes and transformed into
the final fantasy vii remake cafes two locations in tokyo and one in osaka have been remade for
lack of a better term with the full layout of the cafe and menu now reflecting solely
final fantasy vii the promotion runs from february 8th until april 24th 2020 with reservations
being taken through the square annex app a deposit of 1100 yen is required but with that
you receive one drink which costs at least 800 yen and a poster so not a bad deal you also need
a japanese issued credit card or no go overseas cards even visa aren't accepted shinra pudding
steam buns and specialty drinks are all on the menu as well limited edition goods to
also on sale in the cafe for a limited time only i could keep going on and on
but our table is ready so why don't we show you final fantasy vii the remake the cafe in action

very special guest here you want to introduce yourself sure

but uh i said some more true stir
okay so we're gonna have a drink and wait for the next course to come
get down here
hey how's it going i'm ed i've just ordered the taishoku at the square enix final fantasy 7 remake
cafe and i'll see if it tastes as good as it looks and what's it modeled after looks
like it's muddled after the food from the slum in the slum section of the city in final fantasy 7.
okay we're coming up on my order and i got the materia shuttle
kind of like steam buns and each one has a different color to represent the different
kind of material in the game and each one has a different kind of feeling
you hear that damn thing showed you how it's done
come on we've gotta move okay the charon pill was good but uh kind of small so i got a little
hungry kind of skipped breakfast thinking there'd be a big minion here but i was wrong so i just
got french fries there's actually no no theme to it just just good eating i guess right so
let's dip into it maybe this is a chocobo flavored sauce i don't know
which is kind of like a steam bond with uh um on inside what do you say
uh looks delicious can't wait to crack it open and eat its guts
are we going to kill this thing i'm going to need a knife i'm going to need a knife
there we go that doesn't look tasty i don't know what it does
with the cherry on top
all right
that's fun at least
good cold on the outside hot on the inside and what do you think how was it uh i mean i
just had the drinks uh yeah it was good and then fun to talk to your friends nice atmosphere it's
a fun place and it's only open with this theme until april 24 and after april 24th it's going
