The Final Fantasy 7 remake - 1st Class Edition is not cheap at £260

Talk about cashing in on nostalgia: along with last night's new trailer that sent the internet into a tizzy, Square Enix unleashed the Final Fantasy 7 remake - 1st Class Edition onto the Square Enix Store. It can be yours for, um, £260.

What exactly do you get for all that money, then? Well, a lot of the classic collector's edition tat - so that's a Sephiroth SteelBook case, artbook, mini-soundtrack CD and a few bits of bonus DLC. Lastly, there's a Play Arts Kai Cloud Strife and Hardy Daytona box set statue, which is clearly where the biggest chunk of your change is going.
