33 Official material introduces him as a deft gunslinger whose lightning-fast gunplay and ferocious, bestial transformations can devastate the battlefield, making him a high-impact addition to the roster. His bestial form is the Galian Beast, the same transformation he used as a supporting character in the previous entry; in Revelation he can shift between his human and Galian Beast forms in battle.

77 Vincent fights at range, unloading rapid gunfire before shifting into his Galian Beast form for heavy damage. Like the rest of the party he uses the hybrid battle system and can equip job-inspired outfits through the FITS system.

1313 His resolve is captured in a line from the reveal: “I won’t return to my coffin until we’ve put Sephiroth in his.” In the English release Vincent is voiced by Matt Mercer, who helped debut the game on stage.

1515 The director has framed Revelation as a single FINAL FANTASY VII that draws together the settings and ideas of the series’ spin-offs, continuing to develop Vincent and Zack Fair to flesh out the wider world. He has cautioned that the game is not expected to adapt large parts of those spin-offs directly, so Vincent’s arc here builds on his role rather than retelling his standalone story.
