It's a vibe that really works for the DLC, trading on the fact that Remake continues to be great about establishing fun, eccentric characters. In jumps Yuffie, one of the original game's optional characters, and immediately her dangerous espionage mission to infiltrate the evil Shinra Corporation in Midgar is played like a kid goofing off.

But from the first moments of Intermission, the DLC mission added to the game with its Intergrade PlayStation 5 upgrade, it's clear this new episode is mostly a comedy.

Final Fantasy VII Remake's tone often slides between light, funny moments and dark, tragic drama.
