Here’s what you need to run Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC
Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will be coming to PC next month. The game will be arriving on PC on January 23rd 2025. On PC, the game will be launching on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
On PC, Square Enix will be adding new features and customizations to take full advantage of the platform. These include:
- LIGHTING – Lighting has been adjusted, and the game’s overall rendering of light is significantly improved. The updated areas and cutscenes present with even greater beauty and clarity than before.
- FRAMERATE AND RESOLUTION – NVIDIA DLSS support means that frame rates can be enhanced and image quality upscaled. There is now also support for variable refresh rate (VRR).
- TEXTURES – The Level of Detail (LoD) for background models and MIP maps for background textures can both be freely configured in the options settings. With this background polygon density and texture density can be set higher than was previously possible, allowing for gameplay with higher-quality graphics.
Square Enix has confirmed that the PC version of Rebirth is being optimised for Steam Deck. For a limited time, all pre-orders of the game will have a 30% discount.
Below are Final Fantasy VII Rebisth’s PC system requirements. For 1080p 60 FPS gameplay, GPUs like AMD’s RX 6700 XT and Nvidia’s RTX 2070 are recommended. If you want 4K 60 FPS gameplay, AMD’s RX 7900 XTX and Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4080 are recommended.
PC gamers should note that this game requires a DirectX 12 Ultimate Compatible graphics card. Sadly, Square Enix has not revealed why this is the case. Furthermore, the game will need a GPU with 12GB of VRAM or more to run at 4K.
