We live in an era where digital technology is gaining ground, but for us video game enthusiasts, the physical version of a game isn’t just a matter of nostalgia or collecting. It’s a matter of heritage, longevity, and players’ rights.

I am a staunch advocate for the preservation of video games. Games aren’t simply consumer products; they are artistic creations that deserve to be preserved for future generations. When a player buys a game, they should be certain that they own every single element of it in its entirety, without having to worry about servers potentially shutting down or any unforeseen business decisions preventing access to the content. Unfortunately, with the announcement of Final Fantasy VII Revelation, it appears that this digital integrity is being compromised.

Final Fantasy VII is a landmark in video game history, a masterpiece renowned for its complex and emotional story, its unforgettable characters, and its innovative gameplay that has captured the imagination of millions of people around the world. With the release of Final Fantasy VII Revelation, it is imperative that Square Enix honor this legacy by providing players with a complete physical version, containing every chapter of this epic story on its discs.

This represents more than just stored data. It’s a promise to players that the investment they make today will still be valid twenty years from now—and even beyond. Let’s celebrate this continuity—the fact that the content won’t be dependent on digital servers, which can easily become obsolete. Out of respect for the original work and its devoted fans, let’s ask Square Enix to guarantee a complete product right from the initial purchase.

Join us in this call to action to preserve our games and ensure they survive the test of time. Let’s sign this petition so that Final Fantasy VII Revelation is released on complete physical discs, thereby preserving the work for the future and for the many generations of players to come. Sign this petition for the long-term preservation of video games.
