As part of the FFVII Ever Crisis Christmas and holiday event, there’s an Aerith banner with a Snowflake Staff and Fairy of Snowfall costume. Two new videos show off the weapon in action and the live wallpaper for the outfit.
First, here’s Aerith wielding the Snowflake staff against the Gingerbread Cactaur. As the name suggests, it has a giant snowflake on the end of it. Its C. Ability is Snowspell. That means it deals ice magical damage and reduces the enemy’s magical defense. The staff also boosts the effectiveness of ice attacks and her HP when equipped.
Next, here’s the live wallpaper of the FFVII Ever Crisis Christmas Aerith Fairy of Snowfall holiday costume. She’s standing outside just as it is starting to snow in her winter coat. She’s holding her hand out to catch some of the flakes, and you can tell how cold it is as you can see her breath. In her left hand, she’s holding the new Snowflake staff people can get from the gacha.
Square Enix hasn’t shared a look at the Barret part of this new banner yet. He ended up getting the new Microlaser in the update. This gun-arm has the Stalwart Faith C. Ability that casts Regen, heals, and increases someone’s magical attack all at once when used.
We already knew about two other pieces of equipment and types of gear tied to this event. Tifa and Lucia appeared on the first banner. Tifa’s outfit is inspired by the sorts of hats and costumes Santa would wear. Meanwhile, Lucia’s is a general festive outfit with a red hat, puffy white accents, and green bows. It is unknown if we could see another banner for this event that could offer more holiday-themed Christmas clothing for other members of the roster. However, we did end up seeing three banners show up for the FFIX crossover in FFVII Ever Crisis, offering new looks for Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, and young Sephiroth.
Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis is available for the PC and mobile devices. The Aerith and Barret banner is available until December 25, 2023.
