Screenshot of a train passing through a playground in Midgar from the Final Fantasy VII remake announcement trailer. Trains, especially those that are part of Midgar's railway network, appear throughout the Final Fantasy VII universe. In the game's beginning, AVALANCHE hijacks a train and uses it to break into the Sector 1 Reactor; moreover, one of the game's most famous lines, spoken by Barret Wallace, is "There ain't no gettin' offa this train we're on, till we get to the end of the line." The park the train is passing through resembles a recurring location in the universe, where Aerith Gainsborough enjoyed time with both Zack Fair and Cloud Strife.
At the Sony conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, Square Enix announced a complete remake of Final Fantasy VII to be released at an unspecified for the PlayStation 4, and provided a trailer that, among other things, featured this scene.
