(Thethaovanhoa.vn) - Truly, the prospect of competing with Free Fire at this moment is anything but easy.
A year ago, Square Enix and developer Ateam Entertainment unveiled the official release date for their mobile-exclusive battle royale game, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier.

At that time, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier allowed global gamers to pre-register for the game without any IP restrictions, even in the Southeast Asian market, but Vietnamese players were an exception. It's worth noting that Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier is a battle royale game infused with RPG elements from the Final Fantasy series.
Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier features stunning graphics and survival gameplay that continue to captivate players on the mobile platform. With the esteemed Final Fantasy brand and the backing of industry giant Square Enix, this game was anticipated to make a significant impact in the mobile gaming market.

However, everything boiled down to mere disappointment. After a year since its release, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier announced its closure and officially ceased operations on January 11th. It's truly unbelievable that a game bearing such a prominent brand like Final Fantasy could shut down so swiftly.
It's evident that the mobile gaming market, particularly the mobile survival game sector, has faced challenges in competing with titles like PUBG Mobile and Free Fire, which already boast a massive global player base. Nevertheless, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier still comes as a significant surprise to the gaming community.
