Though you spend a lot of time with Barret in FF7 Remake, the game doesn't include much information about his background-or that huge gun attached to his arm. We also see flashes of him growing up with Tifa and telling her that he's leaving for SOLDIER, as seen in the original. ![]() This isn't just a reactor.” In the remake, that moment (and a few more) includes flashbacks to Cloud's younger life in the village of Nibelheim.
