Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade for PS5 is on sale for $30 at Amazon. This deal is also available at GameStop, though you’ll have to pay for shipping unless you can order online and pick up the game at your local store. Target also had this offer but is sold out at the time of writing.
Square Enix reprinted Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s physical edition for PS5 earlier this year. It had been sold out and out of print for years and strangely remained that way during the lead-up to FF7 Rebirth’s release last February. Unsurprisingly, this led to some rather absurd prices on the reseller market. But while it was great to see Square Enix bring back the physical edition, the $70 price tag probably still felt a bit high considering the game’s age. For $30, though? That sounds much better.
It’s possible the price will jump back up near $70 in the coming days. Best Buy, for instance, is selling copies for $60, and Walmart has it for $55. If you’re interested in owning a physical copy of FF7 Remake, you may want to snag a copy soon. If you simply want to play the game, the PlayStation Store has the digital edition for $15.19 until July 31.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a gorgeous reboot of the classic 1997 game it’s based on. Set primarily within the early Midgar chapters of Final Fantasy 7, the remake gives Cloud Strife and the rest of the Avalanche crew a massive graphical glow-up as they fight to stop Shinra Inc. from turning the planet’s life essence into a power source. Ghosts from the past threaten Cloud and his friends, and toward the end of the game, there are major changes to the storyline that shake up the status quo.
The Intermission expansion focuses on Yuffie Kisaragi and her partner Sonon Kusakabe as they work to steal a powerful artifact from Shinra. This is a short but fun add-on to the main campaign of Final Fantasy 7 Remake, which also saw various technical and graphical improvements added to the game. It’s a fairly linear game overall–with some annoying padding–but if you’re looking to revisit the cyberpunk world of Square Enix’s beloved sci-fantasy game, Final Fantasy 7 Remake won’t disappoint.
It’s worth noting Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is getting a Nintendo Switch 2 port, but a release date hasn’t been set.
Big Final Fantasy 7 fans should check out the official Material Ultimania book focused on the PS5 version of FF7 Remake. Published last November, Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Material Ultimania Plus takes fans behind the scenes for a look at the creation of the heralded RPG. Normally $40, the hardcover edition is on sale for $29 at Amazon. You can also save $15 on the first Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Material Ultimania book, which drops the price to $25. This 336-page hardcover focuses on FF7 Remake’s original PS4 version.
Another reprint that Final Fantasy fans might want to pick up is Final Fantasy I-VI Collection, which contains the Pixel Remasters of the first six mainline games. This originally launched with an extremely limited print run, but new copies for PS4 and Nintendo Switch were released in October last year.
Amazon sold out of the Nintendo Switch version during Prime Day, but you can still get it for its Prime Day price of $45 at GameStop. The PS4 version is sold out at most retailers, but you can grab a copy for $58.65 at Amazon.
The collection includes the Pixel Remaster editions of the first six mainline Final Fantasy games and a sticker sheet of Final Fantasy character sprites. Square Enix remodeled the sprites using the original pixel art as a foundation and series composer Nobuo Uematsu oversaw the work on the rearranged soundtracks.
Fans of Final Fantasy’s pixel art era should also check out FF Dot: The Pixel Art of Final Fantasy, which is discounted to $17 (was $25) at Amazon.
The second entry in the FF7 Remake trilogy, Rebirth, released last year and greatly expanded on its ideas while adding several open-world environments to explore. If you’re looking to grab it as well, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth for PS5 is on sale for $54 (was $70) at Walmart. Rebirth was ported to PC earlier this year, and Square Enix plans to bring it to Switch 2, too.
