As the Final Fantasy series enjoys a renaissance with the ongoing remake of its iconic seventh installment, Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis is gearing up to celebrate its 1.5-year anniversary in grand fashion. Starting March 6th, players can expect a flurry of new content, including gear, challenges, and skills. A recent trailer provides an enticing preview of what's in store for fans.
The latest trailer teases a variety of exciting additions, such as a free set of gear as a campaign gift, and a five-star weapon exclusive to Cloud, the Umbral Blade. Additionally, the new event, "Odin: Vanquisher of Souls," will kick off on March 6th, adding fresh challenges to the game.
To mark the 1.5th anniversary, stylish new gear will be introduced for beloved characters. The first character to receive a new look is Sephiroth, who can be seen in the trailer donning the striking Cape of the Worthy, part of the Vestments of the Worthy series. This series will be revealed over four weeks leading up to the anniversary event.

To aid players in tackling the anniversary challenges, a new battle ability called Overspeed will be introduced. This ability will be crucial for the Odin-themed escalation challenge, further enhancing the mobile gaming experience of Final Fantasy.
It's somewhat ironic that even with numerous new entries in the series, Square Enix continually returns to the seventh installment. However, given its status as a fan favorite, it's a move that resonates well with the community.
