Square Enix has released a new video from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (along with a new screenshot) which catches players up on all the happened previously.

Say you missed out on Final Fantasy VII Remake, or don’t have the time to squeeze in a replay before Rebirth hits in February…Square has you covered. Included on Rebirth‘s main menu will be a “Story So Far” recap to help refresh your memory before diving into the new game. But you won’t have to wait to check it out, as they’ve released it for everyone to enjoy today:

The refresher video is narrated by Red XIII, a beast with a flaming tail who offers words of wisdom to Cloud’s party from time to time. Red XIII recaps the events of FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE, the first installment in the critically acclaimed FINAL FANTASY VII remake project.

Additionally, the company released iconic artwork featuring Aerith and the Highwind airship.

Active and Classic modes return from FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE, allowing players to choose their battle style: fast-paced thrills or more methodical decision-making. Three difficulty settings, including Easy, Normal and the new Dynamic setting, allow further customization for players – both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

A new, standalone adventure set across a vast and vibrant planet, FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH sees Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Aerith and Red XIII escape from the dystopian city of Midgar into the wide world beyond. To hunt down Sephiroth, a fallen hero and vengeful swordsman from Cloud’s past, these unlikely heroes join forces with new companions like the spirited ninja operative Yuffie and the wisecracking, feline-shaped robot Cait Sith. Lead these characters into battle and use powerful synergy abilities to overcome their fates. Explore classic locales reimagined in dazzling detail. Encounter dozens of hours of rewarding side quests, fiend hunts, mini-games and rich stories of the planet’s people and cultures.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth hits PlayStation 5 on February 29, 2024.
