Yesterday, Square Enix announced that it plans to release an improved version of the Final Fantasy VII Remake for PS5, and a free next-generation upgrade is available if you own the game digitally or physically. You can now buy a physical copy of the game for $ 30 from Amazon. Keep in mind that if you want to take advantage of this deal, you must have a PS5 with a disc drive to claim your free PS5 copy.
While the game will release on PlayStation Plus for free starting March 2, Sony has confirmed the PS Plus version are not eligible to receive a free upgrade. So you either have to buy the next-gen version, which starts at $ 70, or buy the PS4 version, which I think is the latter the better deal.
