The PC version of the game boasts superior visuals and stability compared to its PS5 counterpart, sparking community discussions about the need for a PS5 update. The PS5 version, particularly in performance mode, suffers from blurry graphics, leaving base console owners reliant on future patches. Game director Naoki Hamaguchi acknowledges the numerous requests for a PS5 visual upgrade, stating that such improvements are feasible within the console's technical constraints.
"Following the PC version's promotional release, we've received many requests for a similar PS5 update, and we intend to explore this possibility, considering the PS5's performance limitations," Hamaguchi stated.
Fans eagerly anticipate Square Enix addressing these requests and enhancing the console visuals.
While the team is diligently working on 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, noting its global acclaim and award wins. The third installment presents unique challenges as the developers aim for broader audience appeal. Interestingly, Hamaguchi also mentions Grand Theft Auto VI as a noteworthy title this year, expressing his support for the Rockstar Games team and acknowledging the immense pressure stemming from GTA V's phenomenal success.
