While Sony's new State of Play dominated the PS4 news today, Square Enix also made some PS4 buzz by revealing a new batch of Final Fantasy VII Remake screenshots and character renders, which are largely focused on showcasing the game's different characters and a bit of gameplay. For example, there's screenshots of Cloud Strife, Tifa Lockhart, Aerith Gainsborough, and Barret Wallace, plus a variety of different eye-popping gameplay screens.

While the screenshots reveal new looks at characters and more, it isn't for anything we haven't seen before. That said, they do showcase just how good the remake looks, especially compared alongside the original. It turns out video game graphics have come a long, long away. Anyway, below, you can check out the new screenshots and character renders:

In addition to releasing a slew of new screenshots, Square Enix also revealed the game's box art, which pays homage to the box art of the original. Further, it released a new slab of gameplay footage highlighting Ifrit, fighting styles, and much more.
