"Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth: Unveiling a New Story, World, and Artwork"

A fan theory suggests that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth may end with Cid's famous rocket experiment, which originally took place before the events of the game, serving as the cliffhanger. The theory is based on a scrapped story beat from the original game, where Cid would have joined the party after Sephiroth summoned Meteor. The theory speculates that Rebirth's altered timeline could allow for this change in the story progression. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is set to release on February 29 for PlayStation 5.
