Q: Does Aerith die in FF7 Rebirth?

A: Yes, Aerith dies in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's prime universe and in several other realities. During the crucial scene at the Forgotten Capital, despite a momentary save by Cloud, the Whispers intervene, ensuring her fate mirrors that of the original game's storyline.

Q: How does the game handle Aerith's death differently from the original?

A: In FF7 Rebirth, Aerith's death is approached with a twist. Cloud initially deflects Sephiroth's attack, saving her momentarily. However, the Whispers restore the original timeline, leading to her death. Cloud witnesses this event across multiple universes, adding depth to her inevitable demise.

Q: Is Aerith alive in any form in FF7 Rebirth?

A: Yes, Aerith Prime survives in an alternate universe. Our theory is she hijacks the body of a comatose Aerith in a universe where Zack survived. This maneuver allows her to live on, suggesting her presence persists beyond her physical death in the prime universe.
