    Don’t worry: Queen’s Blood is back for Final Fantasy VII Revelation.

    The in-game card game was one of the best parts of Rebirth, and while it wasn’t featured in Friday’s reveal, Revelation director Naoki Hamaguchi gave a few hints to Polygon earlier this year about how Queen’s Blood will evolve:

    I want to expand on Queen’s Blood so that we are enhancing it, and giving you a more powered-up version of it when you see that third installment… Queen’s Blood is still going to be available in the third installment. We just want to expand on it.
