LEGO Final Fantasy VII Contest Announced

February 4, 2023 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Square Enix has announced that they are doing a LEGO contest to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy VII. They are asking what Final Fantasy VII setting do you want to see build in LEGO and there are four choices which include Aerith’s House, Honeybee Inn, Sector 5 Slums Church, and Water Tower Nibelheim.

FF7 is my favorite RPG of all time and I would like to see the slums church in LEGO form but my hearts goes to Aerith’s house. If I’m guessing, the build will most likely be created by a LEGO Certified Professional. It doesn’t look like there will be any official sets based on the game but as a fanatic, it’ll be cool to see anything FF7 in LEGO.

To round off Final Fantasy VII’s 25th anniversary year we want you to vote for one of four classic scenes, that we’ll remake with Lego.

We’ll then give away the final piece as a prize in a contest later this year.

Cast your vote in the next VII days: https://t.co/yzbgimguB4 pic.twitter.com/tseJT39a5s
