Final Fantasy VII Remake has a brilliant new trailer, crossdressing Cloud revealed

by

If there’s one part of Final Fantasy VII that hasn’t aged well it’s the cross dressing mission in which Cloud, Tifa, and Aeris have to sneak in to the mansion of well known womaniser Don Corneo. Don likes the ladies so much he only allows females in to his home so Cloud has to drag up and then he and the other two characters line up to be judged by Corneo so he can ‘take his pick’.

There’s also a scene where lady-Cloud is relentless pursued by some rather rapey men who say things like “We’ll treat you real nice,” and “You want me to keep you company?”, and when Cloud reveals he is a man they threaten to beat him up.

Yup, not cool. Obviously but the world has moved on since then so there was some doubt the remake would even include the scene. However, Square Enix confirmed the mission would remain in the remake but with a more “modern” approach and that’s exactly what they have done.The result can be seen in this new trailer for the game which features the game’s new theme song ‘Hollow’
