DESCRIPTION

A mysterious organization has emerged from the devastation of Meteorfall, and the enigmatic Vincent Valentine may be the only hope to save this shattered world. Set after the events in FINAL FANTASY VII and FINAL FANTASY VII ADVENT CHILDREN, this entirely new game features familiar characters, blazing gunfighting action, and the latest chapter of the world’s favorite storyline!

CHARACTERS

Dirge of Cerberus centers around Vincent Valentine who is the main playable character. The playable characters of Final Fantasy VII make cameo appearances, notably Cait Sith, who is controllable for a brief sequence. The game’s main antagonists are Deepground who are planning to use a legendary weapon known as Omega to destroy all the planet’s lifeforms. Their highest ranking elite are the Tsviets (ツヴィエート TsuviÄ“to), with five members appearing in the single player mode of the game, and one more in the online mode. Their leader is Weiss the Immaculate (純白の帝王ヴァイス Junpaku no Teiō Vaisu, lit. ”Weiss the Immaculate White Emperor”) who is controlled by Hojo’s digitized mind, who invaded his body when Weiss was in ”Synaptic Net Dive” mode, trying to find a cure to the Restrictors’ virus that infected him after he overthrew them. Another member is his brother, Nero the Sable (漆黒の闇ネムShikkoku no Yami Nero, lit. ”Nero the Jet-black Darkness”), who leads Deepground under Weiss’ name; Rosso the Crimson (朱のムッソ Aka no Rosso) a psychotic woman skilled with swords; Shelke the Transparent (無色のシェルク Mushoku no Sheruku) an emotionless girl connected to Lucrecia’s personality; and Azul the Cerulean (蒼きアスール Aoki AsÅ«ru), a man with enhanced strength able to transform into a large beast.

The online mode also introduces the Restrictors, the former leaders of the Deepground before Weiss took over. The Restrictors’ leader governed over Deepground, implanting chips into the brain stems of all DGS recruits so they cannot turn against the group. The player character in the multiplayer mode is the exception to this, who was part of Weiss’ plan to take control of the Deepground. At the end of the multiplayer mode, the entire Tsviet group managed to defeat Restrictor and take his place as the ruling force of the DGS. Though they succeeded, Restrictor’s leader attempted to kill Weiss with the virus implanted within him.

STORY

The game begins during the climax of Final Fantasy VII. As Vincent and Yuffie Kisaragi help to evacuate Midgar which is about to be destroyed by a meteor summoned by Sephiroth, Vincent finds Hojo, an antagonist from the first game, slumped at the controls of a Mako Cannon. The cannon explodes, destroying Hojo and forcing Vincent to escape. Three years later, Vincent is in the city of Kalm, which is attacked by mysterious soldiers, who capture some of the citizens and kill the rest. Vincent, with the help of his former comrade Reeve Tuesti and the World Regenesis Organization (WRO), an organization dedicated to helping the planet recover from the events of Final Fantasy VII, fights the soldiers and forces them to retreat.

Reeve discovers that the soldiers were members of Deepground, a military organization made up of super-soldiers from Shinra. While confronting Deepground, Vincent discovers he is one of Deepground’s target as he holds the Protomateria, which they want to use to control a mysterious being known as Omega. Vincent also carries inside him genes of Chaos, a beast having an unknown relation with Omega and it was inserted into Vincent’s body by his lover, Lucrecia Crescent, who froze herself several years ago.

Vincent goes to the town of Nibelheim where Lucrecia studied Omega and Chaos in order to find more information of her research. While confronting Vincent, Deepground member Rosso steals his protomateria in order to control Omega. Before finishing Vincent, Rosso is ambushed by Yuffie who rescues Vincent. As Vincent returns to the WRO, he finds that Deepground has assaulted WRO’s base, while the Tsviet Shelke has been betrayed by her comrades as she already completed her mission of finding Vincent’s protomateria. Shelke reveals she has been connected with Lucrecia’s memory allowing the WRO to complete Lucrecia’s research of Omega. Based on Lucrecia’s research, the group determines what Deepground has planned. Omega is a weapon, which activates when the planet senses that it is in mortal danger; the weapon causes the planet to gather the Lifestream and move to another planet, leaving the planet and everyone on it to die. Deepground plans to slaughter a large number of people at once to trick the planet into activating Omega early.

Vincent and the WRO launch a full-scale assault on Deepground’s headquarters located in Midgar’s remains with the assistance of various of their old comrades as well as Shelke. While Reeve’s team battle the Deepground soldiers and destroying the reactors which serve as a mean to revive Omega, Vincent goes to Deepground’s headquarters. During the assault, Vincent goes to the headquarters’ bottom and finds the leader Weiss slumped in his throne, lifeless. As Omega starts merging with Weiss, the latter revives and confronts Vincent. It is revealed that Weiss is possessed by Hojo; before Hojo was killed in the Mako Cannon, he uploaded his consciousness into the worldwide network, then took possession of Weiss’ body while he was online. Hojo and Vincent battle to a standstill; shortly after, Nero emerges from the Lifestream and pulls Hojo into the Lifestream. Nero then merges with the weakened Weiss in order to help him fuse with Omega.

As Hojo’s spirit disappears, Omega is activated. While the WRO continues to fight the remnants of Deepground, Vincent is possessed by Chaos who stands around Omega. Shelke dives inside Omega to find Lucrecia’s Protomateria and then give it to Vincent alongside Lucrecia’s will, in which she explains Vincent’s survival made her happy. Vincent then takes control of Chaos and battles Omega. After a battle with Omega and Weiss, Omega sprouts wings and tries to escape. Vincent charges Omega, creating an explosion which destroys the latter while the former disappears. As the lifestream returns to the planet, Vincent is found at Lucrecia’s crystalline coffin in the Crystal Cave, stating that both Chaos and Omega were destroyed and thanking her for being his reason he survived. In the secret ending of the game, ”G”, a legendary warrior related with Deepground and Shinra, awakes beneath th
