Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier is a free-to-play battle royale set 30 years prior to the events of Final Fantasy VII. To succeed in this game, you must take down other SOLDIERS with firearms, materia, and other assorted goodies that are scattered around the ever-shrinking map.
There are five different Final Fantasy: First Soldier classes to choose from, however, they’re known as styles in-game. If you can’t decide whether you want to use stealth as a ninja, magic as a sorcerer, or your fists as a monk, our guide is here to help you decide.
Unfortunately, we don’t know the exact Final Fantasy 7: The First Soldier release date right now, so if you need something to play while you wait, take a look at our list of the best mobile RPGs on iOS and Android.
