Cloud from Final Fantasy VII will appear in the racer roster in Chocobo GP. However, everyone won’t have immediate access to him. Rather, he’s someone folks will have to earn. Square Enix confirmed there will be a Season Pass system, and he will be among the rewards in the first one. In addition, Squall from FFVIII will appear.
Here’s the official reveal. It doesn’t actually show Cloud in a vehicle, but it does offer a glimpse at how the racer will appear in Chocobo GP. He comes armed with his Buster Sword. Square Enix didn’t mention if a Season Pass will cost money.
