Cloud’s Buster Sword is undoubtedly one of the most iconic video game weapons of all time. For those unaware, it’s that giant oversized sword that the blonde protagonist lugs around with him throughout the entire game.

It should come as no surprise, then, that Square Enix put a ton of time into ensuring that the Buster Sword got the true rework it deserved.

If you catch the lighting just right, you’ll notice that there are a ton of weathering marks and imperfections on the surface of the sword itself.

That’s not all. The Buster Sword’s materia slots are proudly on display, too. The green orb in his sword is a materia orb and can be seen towards the hilt. Just below it, you’ll spot another empty slot.

We’re assuming that later in the full game, you’ll be able to find another materia orb and place it in the slot, which should see a visual change to your Buster Sword. It’s a really neat way to make your decisions feel like they’ve got some weight to them in the world. Not to mention it adds to the immersion, too!
