Here’s how to play as Sephiroth, Bahamut, and more in the Variant Mode.

Final Fantasy VII The First Soldieris approaching its fourth season on September 1st.

Before the fourth season starts, the game has added an all-new Variant Mode.

Before the match starts, the game will highlight all players of the Variant Team and the Variants they have chosen to spawn as.

What is Variant Mode

Variant Mode is a 9v3 mode.

Bomb can unleash fireballs and explodes on death to decimate the area.

Slug-Ray can fly around shooting its artillery.

Sephiroth with his trusty Masamune defeats an enemy player.

Bahamut can fly around the map, divebomb, and create prominent destructive flares to engulf the opposing team.

Then, choose the current Event, which is Variant Mode.

It’s the one with Sephiroth staring directly at you in the same way he usually gazes towards Cloud.

The Main Menu Screen with options to tap on the Season Pass, Mode Selection, Class Mastery, in-game Shop, and more.

Then you are good to go and can start searching for a match with this mode.

If all 12 players do not join the match, the match will need to be searched for again.

To ensure you play as the Variant Team, you will need to earn Variant Team Tickets.

The Mode Selection and the Variant Mode Event appear here to change sift through matchmaking types.

This will make you lose your opportunity to play as Sephiroth for that match.

Tickets will not be consumed if you fail to join the Variant Team.

Best of luck on joining the Variant Team, and playing as Sephiroth for the next several days!

Sephiroth elegantly glides around the map to find enemy players to cut down.
