Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion All Essential Side Quest Missions – Listed

The new Crisis Core remake/remaster is out, and many players are reminded of the old days when they enjoyed this Final Fantasy VII prequel on PSP or are getting acquainted with the adventures of Zack Fair for the first time. The Reunion version brought many improvements in terms of graphics and quality-of-life solutions to the game from 2008, making it much more playable today. However, all gameplay-related content remained the same – just like the 300 side missions.

As the original game was conceived as a title for a portable system, these additional short missions were ideal for short play sessions, say while riding the Japanese subway a couple of stops, while today in the remastered version for consoles and PC, they can be seen as a strange and unnecessary grind. Therefore, check out our guide below where we have selected some of the most important side missions that you should not miss in Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion.
