Merchoid community manager Jessica Adams commented: It’s every family’s favourite board game in aFinal Fantasy VII theme, so it will feature Cloud, Aeris, Sephiroth and all your favourite characters and locations.

Whether your plans are to buyhousing for the people or builda Mako reactor plant, you’ll soon discover the realnature of Sephiroth’s evil is the extortionate amount of rent he charges."

Square Enix is currently working on a remake of the 1997 hit, that was announced at E3 2015. Since then, the publisher hasrevealed some gameplay footage and spoken about its episodic approach, but the release date is yet to be confirmed.
