Summary

Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisisis celebrating its first anniversary right now with a new wave of skins. The celebration adds new skins for Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, and Yuffie, and are all part of the same theme.

However, in the lineup of “Garbs of the Protectors” skins, Barret is noticeably absent. Despite Barret being one of the most important characters inFinal Fantasy 7, he’s been completely ignored in the anniversary event for Ever Crisis, prompting backlash from fans.

Final Fantasy Fans Say That Ever Crisis Is Ignoring Barret

Some fans are even designing their own “Garbs of the Protectors” skins for Barret so that everyone’s favourite environmentalist doesn’t feel left out. We’ll have to wait and see if he gets anything official while the event is still live, as nothing has been revealed so far.

The anniversary event has added more than just these cosmetics, however. There is a new story event The Cetra’s Story: Birth of the Destroyer. This is themed around Bahamut - just like the new wave of skins - and went live on September 6.

If you’re out of the loop, Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis is a mobile-exclusive gacha game. Despite this, it is still an official part of the Final Fantasy 7 series and is being used to tell stories in this universe.

Case in point, this anniversary event will be used to explain a question that some of us had afterFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth- why does Sephiroth’s sword disappear whenever he’s out of combat? Turns out, there’s a lore reason why he doesn’t carry it around on his back like Cloud does with his, andthis will all be explained in Ever Crisis.
