Ehrgeiz - God Bless the Ring (PS1) price, value & rarity
Is Ehrgeiz - God Bless the Ring still worth playing in 2026?
A 3D fighting game from DreamFactory and Square, Ehrgeiz stands out for its open arenas where you move freely, breaking the traditional versus frame, and for the presence of Final Fantasy VII characters like Cloud and Tifa. The singular combat system and a dungeon crawler style adventure mode add content. The disorienting handling and questionable balance divide opinion. A curiosity for Final Fantasy fans and lovers of experimental 3D fighting games on the PlayStation.
