The PC release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will allow the game to shine with enhanced visual settings and features beyond what was achievable on the PlayStation 5. Director Naoki Hamaguchi has confirmed improvements to lighting, 3D models, and texture resolutions.
Enhanced Visuals
Hamaguchi-san, in a recent interview with Epic Games, revealed that the PC version will have greatly adjusted lighting rendering, addressing one of the most common complaints regarding the PlayStation 5 release. The PC version will also feature:
- Richer 3D models
- Higher resolution textures
- NVIDIA DLSS support
- Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support
- Graphical presets with granular options
These improvements aim to provide a superior experience compared to the PlayStation 5 version and the disappointing PC port of Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Mod Support and Potential DLC
While there won't be official mod support, the development team welcomes user modifications, with the exception of inappropriate mods. Director Hamaguchi-san also mentioned that the team had considered an episodic story DLC, but ultimately prioritized finishing the final game in the trilogy. However, if there is sufficient player demand, the team would consider developing such DLC in the future, potentially bringing fan-favorite characters like Cid or Vincent into the game before the third part of the remake arrives.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is currently available on PlayStation 5 and launches on PC on January 23rd.
