Summary

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH has a TrueGG Rating of 67.8%: the positive share among 4,932 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours. That is 6.6 points below Steam's overall 74.4%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 74.9%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 5% of the total, with 60% positive. The early hours do not split opinion much.

In the last 180 days, reviews at 2–5h are 64% positive versus 79% at 100–200h: the more people play, the more they like it.

Negative reviews most often mention boredom, pacing, and performance.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 51.0%, 16.8 points below all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (72.6% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Why it is rated this way

Complaints center on the game's design (Boring / repetitive, Movement & pacing, Grind). These rarely change with updates, so the rating likely reflects the game itself. Judge by whether it suits you.
