FF7 Rebirth Unveils PC System Demands

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth PC Specs Demand High-End Hardware for 4K

Square Enix has released updated PC specifications for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, highlighting the need for powerful hardware, especially for 4K resolution. Two weeks ahead of the PC launch, the updated requirements emphasize the need for high-end graphics cards with substantial VRAM.

The game, launching nearly a year after its PS5 debut, will leverage DLSS upscaling, Shader Model 6.6, and DirectX 12 Ultimate. Square Enix strongly recommends a graphics card boasting 12-16GB of VRAM for optimal 4K gameplay. This follows the November PS5 Pro patch that enhanced the game's visuals on Sony's upgraded console. Unlike Final Fantasy VII Remake, Rebirth will not receive any post-launch DLC, with Square Enix focusing on Part 3 of the Remake project.

While initial PC specs were revealed at The Game Awards, Square Enix has clarified the graphics card requirements, specifying the 12-16GB VRAM recommendation for 4K resolutions. Other minimum, recommended, and ultra settings are detailed below:

Important Notes:

• 12GB or greater GPU memory is recommended for 4K (minimum and recommended presets). 16GB or greater is recommended for 4K (Ultra preset).
• Graphics cards must support Shader Model 6.6 or later, and the OS must support DirectX 12 Ultimate.

Game director Naoki Hamaguchi previously highlighted the PC port's superior lighting, shaders, and textures. While Square Enix previously mentioned Steam Deck optimization, no updates have been provided. With the January 23rd launch fast approaching, PC gamers eagerly anticipate experiencing Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's enhanced visuals.
