Final Fantasy 7 Remake is finally here, delivering the first part of a long-anticipated reimagining of one of the franchise's most beloved entries. Square Enix previously described this first part to be as long as other Final Fantasy games, despite only covering the story up to the end of Midgar. So now that the game is out, how long does it actually take to beat FF7 Remake and how many chapters does it have? Well, your playtime will fluctuate depending on whether you complete side missions, search out collectibles, or play on a harder difficulty level.

Reviews are available for the FF7 Remake, and they appear largely positive. GameSpot's FF7 Remake review from Tamoor Hussain was positively glowing, awarding it a rare 10/10--a score shared with only a handful of games throughout the site's history.
"Regardless of your history with the original game, Final Fantasy VII Remake is an astounding achievement," Hussain wrote. "The wait for its release was a long one, but in gameplay, story, characters, and music, it delivers--the wait was worth it. For first-time players, it's an opportunity to understand why Final Fantasy VII is held in such high regard. It's the chance to experience a multifaceted story that grapples with complex subject matter, be in the company of memorable characters, and be moved by their plight. For returning fans, this isn't the Final Fantasy VII your mind remembers, it's the one your heart always knew it to be."
