You now have an official excuse to ask Santa Claus or the Eastern Majesties for a new graphics card: after its time on PS5, the essential Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is heading to PC. The date is announced for the end of January and reservations (with a discount) have been opened. Is your team prepared for this whirlwind of emotions? For now, make space: yes or yes you will need 155 GB in SSD storage.
A valuable space, but one that will be very well occupied: Square Enix not only achieved one of the best games of the year, but it is the 2024 title that those of us who write to you daily at iGamesNews liked the most. And although its arrival on desktop systems was one of the secrets kept for the Game Awards ceremony, the truth is that this version was always something that, in a way, we all took for granted. Of course, before celebrating, I can tell you that 4K is something reserved for those who have a GeForce RTX 4080 or similar.
The PC version of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth adds three visual options and, in addition, the possibility of playing at 120FPS with improvements that take advantage of NVIDIA DLSS technology or VRR. On the other hand, in addition to being compatible with controllers and mouse plus keyboard, if you have a DualSense controller, the haptic vibration system is enabled. However, as you will see below, if our monitor is 4K, it is recommended that our graphics card have a memory of at least 12 GB.

Do I need to play Final Fantasy VII Remake first? The truth is that it is also on PC and is absolutely recommended, but the game is designed so that it does not take you long to catch up and become familiar with the characters if you arrive completely new. However, this time Square Enix has not waited to launch an expansion to launch an Intergrade edition or similar. Which is not incompatible with the fact that in the future, before completing the trilogy, the step can be taken.
As far as the game is concerned, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth It is not a transitional installment within the trilogy, but rather a turning point for the great journey of the brave Cloud and his companions in which he must face his past, his nemesis and, ultimately, his own destiny. A JRPG that knows how to give fans of the Square Enix saga much more than what they come looking for, but also meet the expectations of the curious.
Last but not least, the launch of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is scheduled for January 23, 2025 both and Steam like in Epic Games Store. The two editions (standard and Deluxe) will be launched with a 30% discount in both stores, with tons of pre-order bonuses and, in addition, it is possible to get a “Twin Pack” with Final Fantasy VII Remake y Rebirth so that we have both games for less than 70 dollars. If you have the recommended requirements, what you are missing are the excuses to play it on PC.
