Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PC Version: Enhanced Visuals and Features Confirmed
A new trailer showcases the impressive features coming to the PC port of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, launching January 23, 2025. The PC release, nearly a year after its PS5 debut, boasts significant upgrades.
Following its critically acclaimed PS5 exclusive launch in February 2024, demand for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on other platforms surged. While an Xbox release remains uncertain, the PC version offers a compelling alternative. Square Enix recently detailed the PC specifications, and this new trailer highlights the enhanced experience.
High-Resolution and High Frame Rate Gameplay
The PC port will support resolutions up to 4K and frame rates up to 120fps, alongside "improved lighting" and unspecified "enhanced visuals." Players can expect a visually superior experience compared to the console version. Three graphical presets (Low, Medium, High) allow customization based on hardware capabilities. An adjustable NPC count setting further optimizes performance.
Comprehensive Input Options and Enhanced Performance
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC offers flexible input options: mouse and keyboard, and PS5 DualSense controller support with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Nvidia DLSS is included for enhanced performance, but notably, AMD FSR support is absent, potentially impacting performance for AMD GPU users.
Key PC Features:
- Mouse and keyboard support
- DualSense controller support (with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers)
- Up to 4K resolution and 120fps
- Improved lighting and enhanced visuals
- Three graphical presets: High, Medium, Low (with adjustable NPC count)
- Nvidia DLSS support
Commercial Prospects
The PS5 sales of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth were apparently below Square Enix's expectations. The success of the PC port remains to be seen, but the robust feature set should attract a significant player base. The enhanced visuals and performance options, combined with flexible input methods, position Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth for a strong PC debut.
