Do I need to play remake before Rebirth?

Yes, you absolutely need to play Final Fantasy VII Remake before Rebirth; Rebirth is the direct sequel and second part of a three-game story, and skipping Remake will lead to significant confusion due to its complex, ongoing narrative, character backstories, and meta-narrative elements. While Rebirth has a "Story So Far" recap, it's insufficient, and playing Remake first provides essential context for the events and characters in Rebirth.

Is Cloud actually zack?

No, Cloud isn't Zack, but due to trauma and Jenova cells, Cloud creates a false persona by merging his memories with Zack's, adopting his history, fighting style, and mannerisms, believing he was the SOLDIER, when he was actually Zack's sidekick, a regular infantryman. Zack Fair was Cloud's heroic role model and best friend, and after Zack's death, Cloud's mind, influenced by Jenova, filled the gaps by layering Zack's memories and personality onto himself, making him think he was Zack.

Why did Cloud forget Zack?

Cloud forgot Zack because the severe trauma of watching Zack die, combined with Mako poisoning and Jenova cells from Shinra experiments, shattered his mind, causing him to subconsciously create a false identity by merging Zack's persona and memories with his own weak self, effectively erasing Zack from his conscious memory. He didn't forget Zack entirely but rather became a warped version of Zack's heroic image, believing Zack's experiences were his own.
