As detailed on the product page, the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth demo takes place in the game’s opening chapter, so players need not worry about delving too deep into spoiler territory. In particular, the demo takes place during the Nibelheim incident and hands over control of both Sephiroth and Cloud as they explore the quiet town and unlock the dark secrets within.

Additionally, the demo also features a part of the Junon area, which is freely accessible and represents a chunk of the game’s exploration and world map.

Save data from the demo will be carried over to the base game upon release. As such, readers need not worry about playing through Nibelheim once again. Players can also claim the following set of in-game items after completing the demo:

• Kupo Charm: Increases the amount of resource items gained.
• Survival Set: A variety of items such as ethers and potions.

The two items can be used in the full version of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. The Junon area is slated to receive an update on February 21, 2024 - unlocking it in the process. Keep in mind that this section of the game has been altered for the demo.
