March Madness is here, and for gamers, that means some exciting deals on top-notch PS4 and PS5 games. If you’ve been eyeing a few titles, now’s the time to act—PlayStation is slashing prices by up to 75% on a selection of games. Among the deals is a legendary JRPG from the PS1 era, widely hailed as one of the best games ever created.
Score Final Fantasy 7 for Under $10
You can snag the PS4 edition of Final Fantasy VII for just $6.39 on the PlayStation Store. That’s a steal at 60% off its usual price of $15.99. Don’t wait too long, though; this offer expires on March 27.
In Final Fantasy VII, you step into the shoes of Cloud, a former member of SOLDIER, the elite branch of Shinra’s military. He teams up with the anti-Shinra group, AVALANCHE, without fully buying into their goals. During one mission, they face the shocking return of Sephiroth, Cloud’s long-time adversary. With the world hanging in the balance, Cloud and his friends must rise to the challenge and thwart this looming threat.
When it first debuted on the PS1 back in 1997, Final Fantasy 7 was met with rave reviews, boasting an exceptional average score of 92 across 20 reviews on Metacritic. It consistently ranks among the greatest games ever, earning a spot on numerous prestigious lists, including Time Magazine’s “The 50 Best Games of All Time.”
Its success has led to a number of spinoffs, such as Crisis Core and Dirge of Cerberus, which delve deeper into the game’s universe. Characters like Cloud and Sephiroth have made appearances in other popular games like Super Smash Bros. and Kingdom Hearts. Square Enix eventually released a “remake” titled Final Fantasy 7 Remake, which seasoned players will know offers more than just a faithful retelling of the classic story.
