Final Fantasy VII is coming to the PlayStation 4. There wasn't much in the way of information or footage, beyond a brief peek of some footage at Sony's E3 2015 press conference on Monday night, but we were given a glimpse of a reimagined version of the beloved roleplaying game, with a promise that it's coming, and headed to the PlayStation 4 first.

Final Fantasy VII debuted on the original PlayStation back in 1997, and while its standing in the Final Fantasy pantheon is up for debate (my vote goes to Final Fantasy VI), there's no denying that this much beloved game is highly anticipated.

There's no word on when we'll once again adventure alongside Cloud, Tifa, and Red XIII -- easily the best character -- but some word that it's coming might be good enough for fans eager to take a trip down memory lane.
