To start, it is worth mentioning that the bomb timer in Final Fantasy 7 Remake does not begin counting down until after a player has finished the fight with the scorpion that comes later in this section of the game. This means that even the 20-minute timer should be more than ample from most players to escape the reactor before the bomb explodes, and thus fans need not be too worried about making it out under the shorter time limit.

That said, players that do opt to set the timer to 20 minutes in FF7 Remake will receive a small reward, while those that choose 30 will not. Namely, fans that pick 20 minutes will earn an Ether and two Hi-Potions from a particular NPC near the beginning of Chapter 2, and those that do not will be left empty-handed. Considering that these items are not particularly rare, fans may prefer to set the timer in Final Fantasy 7 Remake to the more luxurious 30 minutes, but again 20 minutes should be more than sufficient for escaping.

While the choice between 20 and 30 minutes in Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a relatively small one, it sets the tone for the kind of decisions that players will be making throughout the game. Indeed, there is a choice to be made in a majority of the game’s numerous chapters, and some of them will ultimately impact the cut scenes that fans see later in FF7 Remake.

This means that players will need to play through Final Fantasy 7 Remake multiple times if they have wish to see everything that the game has to offer for themselves. Fortunately, many FF7 Remake reviews suggest that the game lives up to expectations, which will certainly make it easier for fans to go through it more than once in order to see the varying results of the choices that they make.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is available now for PS4.
