Square Enix Hints at Visual Upgrades for FFVII Rebirth on PS5

The PC version of the game not only boasts significantly superior visuals compared to the PS5 version but also offers a more stable performance, sparking widespread discussion within the gaming community about the necessity for an update on Sony's console.

Currently, the PS5 version suffers from blurry visuals when in performance mode, leaving base console owners with no choice but to wait for potential patches. Game director Naoki Hamaguchi has acknowledged that improvements are feasible within the PS5's technical constraints.

"Following the release of the PC version's promotional material, we've been inundated with requests for a similar update for the PS5 version," Hamaguchi stated. "We're considering making these enhancements at some point, within the limits of what's technically possible on the PS5."

The gaming community is eagerly anticipating that Square Enix will heed these fan requests and enhance the console visuals accordingly.

While the development team is diligently working on the sequel, Hamaguchi has asked fans to remain patient, promising more details in the near future. He highlighted that 2024 marked a successful year for Final Fantasy Rebirth, the second installment in the trilogy, which garnered global attention and numerous awards. As the team gears up for the third installment of Final Fantasy VII, they face unique challenges in their efforts to expand the game's fan base.

Interestingly, Hamaguchi also expressed admiration for Grand Theft Auto VI this year, showing support for the Rockstar Games team. He believes they are under significant pressure due to the phenomenal success of GTA V.
