    I have been looking forward to this game and wanted to pre order the deluxe version for the bonuses. The game shipped directly to my house on release day and the steel book bonus from Best Buy came a day or so later. The items came undamaged and I am very happy.

    Without spoiling anything about this game - it's definitely one of my best PS5 purchases in a year where several games are Game of the Year contenders, and this game is no different. Just make sure you've dusted your PS5 properly and give it proper airflow. :)

    I’ve had so much fun playing this game. The replayability is there, the smooth combat is there and the storyline is banger. Its a little less on the rpg side but it reminds me of DMC4 and that makes it the better. I’d recommend for everyone to give it a try.

    This is one of the best Final Fantasy stories I have experienced! The characters are fleshed out incredibly (including NPCs) and the storytelling is amazing. Combat can get a bit repetitive but there is enough there to change it up a bit. Overall 9.5/10

    Just completed challenge mode of campaign and tempted to play game second time in fantasy mode. Amazing story plus the cinematic scenes and battles are top notch! I ended up playing in Japanese audio because I like the lips to match the voice actors.

    Ugh. The worst Final Fantasy game ive ever played. Its an ok game overall but the pacing was horrible and theres little else to do besides fight and watch cutscenes. Side quests put me to sleep on multiple occasions. The reviews really misled me with this one big time.

    This is a great entry into the franchise. With more mature overtones, i feel like this has a great story.

    The product itself arrived quickly and in great condition. The game is fun so far; I'm not sure how far along I am, but I just unlocked hunts. Overall, I enjoy it and would recommend it for an action game although it's a bit long in the exposition.

    Jaw Dropping Spectacle

    A jaw dropping spectacle a fan of grandiose RPGs would love. It’s different from traditional FF games, yes, but an evolution that is not unwelcome and with spectacle moments that are borderline a cinematic theatrical movie in and of themselves.

    This is a great game following the mechanics of the last FFVII remake. The visuals are awesome and the history engaging (not finished yet, just starting it). If you enjoyed previous FFVII and FFXV you will be happy with this one as well.

    Great game! Never tired a character action game like this but it’s really a fun time. It definitely didn’t any punches with the graphics looking exceptional especially during the boss battles. Now I want to try more games in this genre.

    It was an amazing game! But Best Buy does something weird when taking the money for the preorder, and it’s a little confusing. It takes the money then refunds it then takes it back when the preorder releases. Only bad exp I had. Everything else was good, the steel case that game free didn’t get shipped until a day or two later.

    This is the final fantasy ive been waiting for for years! Even as someone who doesn’t like action rpg’s the battle system is so much fun ans the story/characters are compelling to keep you going! Highly recommend picking it up!

    This is DMC with final fantasy lore and world building, Has great pacing, fast action and great cinematic cutscene transition battles. Recommend to those who are willing to go out of squares traditional party and turn based system.

    The game is definitely worth the play through but the Deluxe Edition is not worth buying. The only thing you get extra is a steel box and a cloth map that’s it. If I didn’t know this, I would’ve only brought the regular version.
