The Final Fantasy VII Remake Deluxe Edition Artbook is an artbook for Final Fantasy VII Remake that came as part of the physical Deluxe and 1st Class editions of the game, officially released on April 10, 2020. A digital version, the Final Fantasy VII Remake Digital Artbook, came with the Digital Deluxe edition as a downloadable PlayStation 4 application.
The book is mostly in English, however a foreword from producer Yoshinori Kitase appears in both Japanese and English.
Contents[]
The Digital Artbook cycles through images, first showing a two-page spread and are then followed by slides giving a closer look at the individual images on that spread. The two-page spreads are mostly identical to the physical artbook, although they lack page numbers and a have a few other minor labeling differences.
Artworks below listed with numbers detail the slide they appear on in the Digital Artbook. Some artworks only appear on the page-spread and do not have a closer look. Certain slides feature additional artwork not on the spreads (and thus not in the physical artbook). Some artworks are also cropped on the page-spread, uncropped on the slides.
