Another one ofFinal Fantasy 7’s iconic scenes, remade forFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, has been shared. Square Enix released a new trailer forFinal Fantasy 7 RemakeFriday morning. The trailer teases several cinematic sequences fromFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, many of them important to the classic JRPG’s story. One scene in particular, the one in which Cloud dresses up in feminine garb as a disguise, is particularly striking. There also scenes featuring Sepheritoh and RED XIII, too.
Cloud’s crossdressing scene is an excellent example of just how muchFinal Fantasy 7 Remakeis changing in comparison to the original title. In the originalFinal Fantasy 7, Cloud is tasked with putting on a disguise of a call girl to infiltrate Don Corneo’s mansion.Cloudand Aerith believe Tifa is being held in the mansion, but Don Corneo only allows men who he employs into building. That’s the reason for the disguise.

In theoriginalFinal Fantasy 7, Cloud simply goes into a small fitting room and comes back out in his dress and wig. According to the new trailer, Cloud’s transformation is much more of an event. In the original, the Honey Bee Inn is an optional location where Cloud can get make-up applied or earn a piece of his “disguise.” In the new game, it looks like the Honey Bee Inn gives Cloud a full makeover in a lengthy and fun cutscene.
The trailer also features other important sequences fromFinal Fantasy 7. There’s animportant encounter with Sephirothshown, as well as a brief look at what must be Cloud’s first encounter with Red XIII. That answers the question as to whether Red XIII would even be seen in this firstFinal Fantasy 7 Remakegame. Some other fun moments in the trailer include the reveal of what might be two more summons: Leviathan and Chocobo & Moogle.
