FF7 Remake Info Suggests Fort Condor Has Been Cut From The Series

New information about the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Remake DLC has been revealed, and it suggests that the Fort Condor segment from Final Fantasy 7 has been cut or completely altered. Fort Condor was always one of the strangest parts of FF7, and it never made much sense within the context of the universe.

Fort Condor is home to a gigantic bird and its egg. The Shinra Corporation wants to get rid of the bird, so they send troops to try and kill it. The fortress is protected by soldiers who want to save the bird, but they're hopelessly outnumbered. Cloud Strife turns out to be their savior, as he is able to give them the funds to hire mercenaries to protect the fort. This leads to a minigame, where the player spends cash on soldiers to fight Shinra units, in a tower defense-style experience. The segment becomes relevant to the story during the Huge Materia quest, as one of them can be found in the Fort Condor reactor.

Square Enix has been revealing new information about the FF7R INTERmission DLC for FF7 Remake. A post on the official Final Fantasy VII Remake Facebook page talks about a new character named Polk, who is a member of Avalanche HQ. According to the post, Polk is obsessed with a board game called Fort Condor, which has taken the undercity by storm. This suggests that Fort Condor has been turned into an in-universe minigame, rather than being part of the story.

It's possible that the developers decided to scrap Fort Condor from the story, but will keep the minigame as a board game enjoyed by the characters. The reason Fort Condor never made sense was that the Shinra Corporation had the military power to take over the world, yet they couldn't take one poorly-defended fortress. The members of SOLDIER alone should have been able to wipe out the defenders. Cloud relied on mercenaries to defend the fortress, yet the Shinra Corporation was incredibly wealthy, so why couldn't they outbid and buy the services of the mercenaries? The whole thing didn't make much sense in the context of the setting, so it might be wise to turn it into a minigame outside of the main story.

Fort Condor did become a major part of the story of FF7 in the Huge Materia quest, but the story of the sequel is going in a different direction, so the Huge Materia might not even appear. Fans weren't expecting to see Fort Condor until later in the series, but it might appear in a few months in a different form, as part of the FF7R INTERmission DLC.
