Final Fantasy 7 Remake Tifa & Aerith Have Equal Screentime On Purpose

Both Tifa and Aerith are getting equal amounts of screen time in Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Square Enix says that it’s no accident. The leading ladies of the iconic Final Fantasy VII are immensely popular, serving as an emotional linchpin throughout the events of Final Fantasy VII.

During the original Final Fantasy VII, players were introduced to both the kind-hearted and playful flower girl Aerith Gainsborough and the serious, tough-as-nails AVALANCHE member Tifa Lockhart, as well as their connections to lead protagonist Cloud Strife. Both girls share a strong bond with the former SOLIDER, whether in the form of Cloud serving as a bodyguard for Aerith in the rough Midgar Slums or having grown up with Tifa in the doomed town of Nibelheim, and it isn’t long before these feelings turn romantic for both of them. As to be expected with this sort of character dynamic, fans of the game would clash for years over who Cloud should have ended up with, although in canon the decision is ultimately unchangeable. Even before that, however, the story seemed to push Cloud more towards Aerith, which might not entirely be the case in Final Fantasy VII Remake.

According to USGamer, Final Fantasy VII Remake producer Yoshinori Kitase has revealed that both Tifa and Aerith will be portrayed on equal footing in the new game, including how long they are shown onscreen. “[W]e have been very conscious about the player’s amount of time with Tifa and Aerith and keeping it equal,” he stated earlier this week. “Additionally, we would make sure their representation in-game is balanced as well; for example, if there is a special event scene for Tifa, then we would prepare something similar for Aerith as well.”

The upcoming Final Fantasy VII Remake has already promised to serve as an expansion of the original’s storyline, adding additional characters like Kyrie Canaan from the spin-off novel The Kids Are Alright and stretching the famous cross-dressing scene at the Honey Bee Inn into a full-blown musical number. Even a few major plotlines have been altered, such as the Mako Reactor explosion in Final Fantasy VII Remake’s beginning being a deliberate act of sabotage by Shinra rather than a tragic oversight on AVALANCHE’s part.

Now, it seems that the developers will be making sure both Aerith and Tifa’s roles in Final Fantasy VII Remake are shown equally. Both of these characters are great in their own right, and it also makes sense to try to focus on them in equal amounts in order to add weight to the game’s classic love triangle with Cloud. Players will get a chance to see more of Aerith and Tifa when Final Fantasy VII Remake arrives later this month.
