For Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on the PS5, Square Enix has alluded to visual enhancements

The PC version of the game boasts superior visuals and stability compared to its PS5 counterpart, prompting widespread community discussion regarding the need for a PS5 update. The PS5 version, particularly in performance mode, suffers from noticeable blurriness, leaving base console owners with little option but to await patches.

Game director Naoki Hamaguchi acknowledges the player feedback and the possibility of improvements within the PS5's technical constraints. He stated, "Following the PC version's promotional release, we've received numerous requests for a similar PS5 update, and we aim to address this eventually, within the performance limitations of the PS5 version."

Fans eagerly anticipate Square Enix's response to these requests for enhanced console visuals.

While the team is actively developing the sequel, Hamaguchi requests patience, promising further details at a later date. He highlights 2024 as a successful year for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second game in the trilogy, citing global recognition and multiple awards. The third installment presents unique challenges as the developers strive to expand the game's fanbase. Interestingly, Hamaguchi also expressed his admiration for Grand Theft Auto VI, acknowledging the immense pressure on the Rockstar Games team due to GTA V's phenomenal success.
