Set seven years before the events of the original Final Fantasy 7, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion puts players in the shoes of Zack Fair. Zack is a younger member of the elite fighting force known as SOLDIER. In Zack's shoes, fans can interact with iconic characters like Sephiroth, Hojo, Tifa, and more.
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 - Reunion is a remaster of the original PSP game from 2007. It features updated graphics and character models that make it look and feel more like a companion piece to Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Whether one is playing as a fan of the original Final Fantasy 7 or the updated remakes, Crisis Core tells an unmissable story in the FF7 universe. Let's look at how long Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 -Reunion takes to beat.
How Long To Beat Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 - Reunion
As a title that sits somewhere between a remake with updated models and a faithful remaster, Crisis Core has no additional content and is scene-for-scene the same game that launched in 2007 on the PSP.
According to the data obtained on How Long To Beat, the average time to finish Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion is approximately 18 to 19 hours. For players looking to work on the side missions without worrying about scoring 100% on everything, the game averages around 28 hours.
However, completists have reported that the Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion can take approximately 80 hours to do everything. There are a lot of side missions and challenges to finish, and with the addition of Crisis Core's 51 Trophies/Achievements, trophy hunters may take even longer than that. There are missable and difficulty-related trophies like SOLDIER OF LEGEND that requires the player to beat the game in hard mode or complete 100% of all missions for the Mission Completionist trophy.
Is There A New Game Plus?
As stated above, there are missable and difficulty-related trophies, side content, and more, and it's a challenging task to find and complete all these goals in one playthrough. Thankfully, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion has a New Game Plus mode.
Like the NG+ feature in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake, it allows players to play again with Zack's character level, equipment, and DMW progress intact. This will make many challenging aspects of Crisis Core's side content and trophies more achievable in a second playthrough. With the inclusion of achievements making NG+ more worthwhile for many players, Crisis Core can potentially last dedicated fans up to 100 hours.
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
