In Midgar, the slums bustle with individuals, mako reactors smolder, and the soil turns to dust carried by breezes flowing by means of smog-crammed air. The whole position could use a fantastic hose down. As a result of the fog, a new hero emerges, clad in blue, wielding… a powerwasher. 

All right, so, you may possibly not be capable to cleanse the planet of the Shinra scourge, but you can just straight up cleanse the world! Whilst Avalanche discounts with Shinra, you are going to deal with the fallout. The only ability struggle you’re tasked with is keeping maintain of that washer.  

We are happy to have labored with the Last Fantasy VII team to transport PowerWash Simulator players to a single of gaming’s most recognisable cities, in a fresh and genuine way. Players will fall in like with it after more in the new Midgar Special Pack, releasing March 2.  

Free of charge to all owners of PowerWash Simulator, the enlargement capabilities five filthy new maps to wash and take a look at, together with iconic areas, automobiles and mechs. I’ll pass above to some of FuturLab’s designers, who worked on the Midgar Unique Pack, to provide a nearer look at the inspiration at the rear of two of the degrees, the Scorpion Sentinel and Seventh Heaven. 

The Mighty Scorpion Sentinel 

One particular of the most memorable boss fights in Last Fantasy VII is without having a doubt the Scorpion Sentinel, generating it a best occupation for the Midgar Exclusive Pack. The player will come across the Sentinel right before its deployment from the associates of Avalanche, and here it is seen to have been place via a collection of exams by Shinra to consider its different defensive abilities. 

We’ve represented a variety of scratches and projectile ricochet marks by using a new Fight Problems dust form. Moreover, the Scorpion Sentinel bears the consequences of a examination with one particular of Professor Hojo’s specimens, as observed from the splats of bio residue present all about the equipment from this creature’s assaults. As the Sentinel is run by Mako electrical power (my favorite new dirt form), we have deposited it in crucial spots to illustrate how the Sentinel experienced been pushed to its restrictions. The relaxation of the dirt is generally grime that amassed through the many trials the Scorpion Sentinel underwent. 


“When recreating the legendary Scorpion Sentinel in PowerWash Simulator we truly wanted to make the Sentinel really feel alive, so various animations these types of as its roving eye and claws and can be seen. We also needed to be able to interact with it, so players can move the Sentinel’s arms to get distinct angles for cleaning.”

– Federico D’Apote, Designer 


The Charming Seventh Heaven 

For the Midgar exclusive pack, we certainly realized we had to deal with the very best bar in Sector 7 and dwelling of Avalanche, Seventh Heaven. Not only does it give players the opportunity to hear from beloved FFVII characters like Cloud and Tifa (though also remaining ready to cleanse some of gaming’s coolest weapons like Barret’s gun and Cloud’s buster sword) but our initial-person perspective also features the option to take a nearer glance at Tifa’s decorating expertise and examine parts of the bar players could not see as quick prior to. 


“Bars, primarily dystopian fantasy types, are normally bursting with environmental storytelling and attract a assortment of dust. Tifa has experienced to train Don Corneo’s disrespectful lackeys a lesson. So, we’ve fully protected the floor in footprints, splattered food items and drink stains on the tabletops and partitions, together with some basic age and neglect establish-up in these tough-to-achieve places. This results in a quite satisfying cleaning encounter with a uniquely Ultimate Fantasy complete!”

– Sam Jenkins, Designer 


Together with the Scorpion Sentinel and Seventh Heaven, you will also spray down the Hardy Daytona and Shinra Hauler, the Mako Power Exhibit, and the formidable Airbuster. 

Whether or not you’re a grime detailer or a chaotic cleaner, every map will find the money for you the time and area to take pleasure in the captivating metropolis and some of Shinra’s best tech as under no circumstances before… you know, as it is not attacking you this time.  

Whilst the fate of the town may perhaps be muddy, potentially you can help clear a path for a couple plucky heroes. The Midgar Specific Pack for PowerWash Simulator releases on March 2.
