Square Enix has just launched the Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo, it features the first chapter of the game, the Mako Reactor 1 bombing mission. Players will finally get a taste of what they had been asking for years. The demo will take 7.59 GB of storage so depending on your network, it shouldn’t take long to download and install. Players who download the demo will receive an exclusive theme for the PS4 at the release of Final Fantasy VII Remake on April 10.
