SQUARE ENIX and sports car manufacturer, Porsche AG, announced a collaboration to celebrate those who are Driven by Dreams. In celebration of the release of the critically acclaimed, FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, fans can hear from creators of the original FINAL FANTASY VII and the FINAL FANTASY VII remake project in a visionary short film.
Check out the FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH x Porsche – Driven by Dreams Video:
In the film, FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH Creative Director Tetsuya Nomura, Producer Yoshinori Kitase and Director Naoki Hamaguchi hit the streets of Tokyo in two iconic Porsche 911 – a classic car from 1997 and the most recent 2024 model year – to reflect on the legacy of FINAL FANTASY VII (released in 1997) and what it was like to dream the groundbreaking RPG into existence with no existing road to follow.
To celebrate the collaboration, Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles added a specially themed Porsche 911 featuring a FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH livery to their fleet. Voice actors from the game, Briana White (Aerith), Caleb Pierce (Zack), Suzie Yeung (Yuffie) and Max Mittlemen (Red XIII), were able to take the customized 911 out on the driver development course for a thrilling, hands-on driving experience.

“At Porsche, we’re inspired by dreamers around the world—those who are driven by a desire to create change. Few people embody that pioneering spirit quite like the creators of FINAL FANTASY VII, who redefined the role-playing game genre and raised the bar for the video game art form to astonishing new heights. On the eve of their latest highly anticipated release, we at Porsche salute the entire development team at SQUARE ENIX and continue to feel inspired by dreamers like them.” -Deniz Keskin, Director Brand Management & Partnerships at Porsche AG.
“With FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, just like with the original FINAL FANTASY VII, we began development with a dream to create something that would become the standard for storytelling in the next generation of games. Dreaming means overcoming many challenges, but it’s also a chance to create new possibilities. We share that willingness to reinvent and challenge established norms with our friends at Porsche.” -Yoshinori Kitase, Producer (FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH)
