Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Reveals Full PC Requirements

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

With Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's PC launch just weeks away, Square Enix has released updated system requirements, highlighting the need for powerful hardware, especially for 4K resolution. The updated specifications emphasize the need for high-end graphics cards boasting 12-16GB VRAM for optimal 4K gameplay.

Key features of the PC version include DLSS upscaling, Shader Model 6.6 support, and DirectX 12 Ultimate. This follows the November release of a PS5 Pro enhancement patch, further optimizing the game for Sony's upgraded console. Unlike Final Fantasy VII Remake, however, Rebirth will not receive any DLC at launch; Square Enix is currently focused on Part 3 of the Remake project.

While initial PC specs were revealed at The Game Awards, Square Enix has since clarified that 12-16GB of VRAM is recommended for 4K resolution. Other minimum requirements include a 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 operating system, 155GB of SSD storage, and 16GB of RAM. Recommended CPU options include the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 or higher, while the minimum GPU requirement is an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 or equivalent, due to the game's utilization of DLSS.
