Nintendo Switch port of Final Fantasy VII: New Threat Mod. It is a gameplay overhaul mod for Final Fantasy VII created by Sega Chief:

  • Enemy & Player-Character Rebalance (Intended difficulty: Midcore).
  • Dialogue Revamp (maintains original game's style).
  • Additional Sidequests & QoL Scripts (e.g. Flashback skips).

Features

  • 100+ new bosses and enemies, with every story boss given a new set of moves and AI.
  • About 40 or so 'unique' models made for enemies using in-game monster parts; we got a robot dragon in there somewhere.
  • Quick but rewarding random encounters coupled with longer tougher boss fights.
  • An Extra Battle added to the Battle Square that's a bit like the Monster Arena in FFX.
  • Some new thingies like extra save points, merchants, and the option to skip the lengthier cutscenes and flashback sequences to make the game go by a bit smoother.
  • Extra end-game boss fights to unlock Lv4 Limits and Ultimate Weapons as well as the option to change party leaders from the Operations Room once the party has reached the bottom of North Cave (or North Cavity as the cool kids are saying nowadays).
  • Fixed the age-old "perfect game" dilemma of whether to use the third battery or not.

Installation

This requires LayeredFS to work. Example of where to place the files if you are using Atmosphere:

  • Atmosphere <=0.9.4 /Atmosphere/title/0100A5B00BDC6000/romfs/[your working folders and files]
  • Atmosphere >=0.10.1 /Atmosphere/contents/0100A5B00BDC6000/romfs/[your working folders and files]
