FINAL FANTASY VII arrives on GOG with a new edition live on Steam too

Square Enix today released their slightly upgraded version of FINAL FANTASY VII, along with making it available on GOG too. The original version has been renamed to "FINAL FANTASY VII (2013)", and has be hidden for purchase on Steam with this newer version completely replacing it. However previous buyers on Steam have access to both.

The new addition has no story changes, mainly just a few tech additions including:

3× speed mode

• Play through the game at up to three times the speed! This feature can only be used in battle, travel, and select events.

Ability to turn battle encounters off

• Activate this option to turn off random encounters. Story event battle still must be completed to advance the story.

Battle enhancement mode

• Activate this mode to recover HP/MP during battles and max out the Limit gauge.

Autosave feature

Nice to see it on GOG now as well though, along with a bunch of other recent FINAL FANTASY titles that were previously released on GOG. Options are nice for gamers for whatever store they prefer.
