FFVII Crossover?

Red XIII mount.

Didnt Yoshi-P say in a interview few months ago that he wanted to introduce a Red XIII in the game? I reckon a mount version would be a great way to do this.

He did, but then shot down the thought as it would be breaking FFVII's lore (Red XIII is a character of a particular size and is an endangered species). I posted a sauce on the first page.
Dead characters, as well as characters who are finished with their storyline are also never going to appear in FFXIV.

Clothing and weapons are fine.

Here's another link, around two years ago.

Also, in regards to future collaborations with other FF series, we will be adhering to the below principles:

We will never introduce characters that would destroy their meaning or story
We will not use characters that are already dead or whose role has ended in their title
For example, “Red XIII” who appeared in FFVII.
I believe we mentioned “Red XIV” as a joke before, but Red XIII has a very rare and specific role in the world of FFVII. If he was wandering around the world of Eorzea it would destroy the image of the world of FFVII, so this can’t happen.

I choose to not be fun at parties.
