SQUARE ENIX recently announced that they are releasing new tabletop board game ASCEND THE SHINTA TOWER – FINAL FANTASY VII Board Game in January 2027. Co-developed with Arclight, Inc (headquartered in Tokyo), the game is a cooperative balance board game based on the characters and lore from the popular video game FINAL FANTASY VII.
Inspired by FINAL FANTASY VII, this thrilling cooperative balance board game has you and your teammates working together to ascend the unstable Shinra Tower. Stack “Floor Tiles” atop “Wall Tiles” of varying heights to build upward, level by level. As the Shinra Tower rises, it gradually begins to tilt, becoming increasingly unstable…
Maintaining balance through teamwork and discussion becomes the key to success in this cooperative challenge.
Foes who stand in Cloud’s way will appear one after another within the Shinra Tower. Borrow the strength of your allies to overcome these enemies as Cloud continues his ascent toward the top. If you can prevent the Shinra Tower from collapsing and help Cloud reach the 8th floor, you win the game — but the final challenge still awaits…
Will you be able to overcome your nemesis Sephiroth and save the planet from crisis?
All newly created artwork featured on the package and on the game’s wooden components is fully supervised by Tetsuya Nomura, the original character designer and story concept creator of FINAL FANTASY VII.
Cloud, along with familiar allies such as Tifa and Aerith and the foes they face, appear on wooden pieces featuring charming, storybook‑style artwork – a fresh reimagining of the FINAL FANTASY VII characters created for this board game.
