Aerith can also use the □ button to perform long-range attacks with her magic. If you release them in succession, the number of targets will increase, allowing you to attack a wider range of targets.
Unique Ability "Tempest"
Aerith's unique ability "Tempest" is activated by pressing the △ button, and its power is increased by holding it down to charge it up.
Ability "Aspirations"
This is a familiar magic from the Final Fantasy series that absorbs MP from the enemy.
Ability "Shield of Light"
Places a magical shield that repels bullet attacks and keeps enemies away.
This is a unique ability in the FF7 remake that was not available in the original work, and has a more action-oriented feel.

New episodes not in the original!
The remake will include many new episodes that were not in the original.
The episode announced this time is called "Train Graveyard".
A train depot used during the construction of Midgal. After its role was completed, it became a place to dispose of trains. When a strong wind blows, the abandoned cars creak and make a high-pitched sound. It is said that it sometimes sounds like a child's laughter.
The maze-like structure of the abandoned train is similar to that of the original FF7.
Is it my imagination, or is the atmosphere somewhat reminiscent of the magic train in FF6?
A new story in the train graveyard will be depicted along with a number of event scenes.
