Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth | PC Requirements Unveiled

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 a high-end graphics card with 12-16GB VRAM for optimal 4K gameplay.

The game leverages DLSS upscaling, Shader Model 6.6 support, and DirectX 12 Ultimate for enhanced performance and visuals. This follows the November PS5 Pro patch that improved the game's performance on Sony's upgraded console. Unlike Final Fantasy VII Remake, however, Rebirth will not receive any DLC at launch, with Square Enix focusing on the development of Part 3.

While initial PC specs were revealed at The Game Awards, Square Enix has clarified that 12-16GB of VRAM is recommended for 4K resolutions. Other minimum requirements remain consistent: 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, 155GB of SSD storage, and 16GB of RAM. A multi-core CPU like the Ryzen 5 5600 or equivalent is recommended, along with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 or AMD equivalent, with the latter requiring a newer model for 4K.

Notes:

• 12GB+ GPU VRAM recommended for 4K (minimum and recommended presets). 16GB+ VRAM strongly recommended for 4K (Ultra preset).
• Shader Model 6.6 or higher and DirectX 12 Ultimate support are required.

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 date approaching, PC gamers are eagerly anticipating the release.
