It shared the day with Mouthwashing, Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted and Terrible Lizards, and our new Game Pass games page has the full October list. Prices for every plan are on our Game Pass price page.

What you get with Remake Intergrade

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade retells the original 1997 story up to the escape from Midgar. Cloud Strife, an ex-SOLDIER turned mercenary, joins the Avalanche resistance against the Shinra Electric Power Company, which drains Mako, the planet’s lifeblood, to power its reactors. Combat mixes real-time action with command-based abilities: you attack freely, then slow the action to a crawl to cast magic, use items and give teammates orders.

Intergrade adds FF7R Episode INTERmission, a side story starring Yuffie Kisaragi, a young ninja from Wutai who sneaks into Midgar to steal Shinra’s ultimate materia. Every copy also comes with the Cacstar weapon for Yuffie’s episode, three armor pieces, three accessories and the Carbuncle, Chocobo Chick and Cactuar summon materia, claimed from the Gift Box in the main menu.

Buying it instead

The Microsoft Store sells Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for $39.99, the same as on Steam, and the Digital Deluxe Edition for $59.99. Game Pass members get 20% off either one: $31.99 for the standard edition and $47.99 for the Deluxe. The Deluxe version adds a digital art book and a digital mini soundtrack, while the bonus weapon, armor, accessories and summon materia come with both editions. Game Pass gets the standard edition.

A free demo with the first chapter, the Mako Reactor bombing mission, is on the Microsoft Store too. A demo save carries over and unlocks the Revival Earrings and Survival Set in the full game, unless you already have a save in the full game. If you play through Game Pass and buy later, your saves and achievements stay with your Xbox account.

What about Rebirth and the third part?

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second part, isn’t on Game Pass. It came to Xbox Series X and S and the Microsoft Store on PC on June 3, 2026, and sells for $49.99 there. Your Remake Intergrade save unlocks the Leviathan summon in Rebirth, and an INTERmission save unlocks Ramuh.
