Though Cloud and the gang don’t face off against the original Final Fantasy 7’s meanest monsters in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, that doesn’t mean they don’t make a brief appearance. On both Twitter and Reddit, fans have shared posts pointing out a pair of posters that allude to Emerald and Ruby Weapon existence.

Tucked away in Tifa Lockhart’s former bedroom, the posters could be merely playful references, as they don’t explicitly depict the weapons but rather areas of lands that look like them. However, we’re holding out hope that these images are a tease for what’s to come in the series’ third installment.
For those unfamiliar with the original Final Fantasy 7, the weapons are a collection of mechanical-looking monsters that aim to protect the planet. The creatures are summoned in the midst of Cloud’s adventure and while two of the Weapons–Diamond and Ultimate–are required boss battles, Emerald and Ruby are both optional. That said, taking on Ruby and Emerald is not for the faint of heart, as both battles are grueling time-sinks.
