Final Fantasy 7 might not be a horror game, but one breakout horror hit from 2024 takes a lot of inspiration from the classic RPG. Released in May after a clever marketing campaign that leaned on 90s-style advertisements, Crow Country takes things back to the PlayStation 1 era while carving out its own niche. As a survival horror title, it’s been most heavily compared to games like the original Resident Evil and Silent Hill, a fair evaluation that nonetheless ignores the equally obvious connections to FF7 and fails to fully explain Crow Country‘s unique brand of charm.
