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 currently suffers from blurry visuals in performance mode, 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 PS5's technical constraints.
"Following the PC version's promotional release, we've received many requests for a similar PS5 update. We aim to address this at some point, while remaining mindful of the PS5 version's performance limitations."
Fans eagerly anticipate Square Enix heeding these calls for enhanced console visuals.
While the team is diligently working on the sequel, Hamaguchi requests patience from fans, promising further details at a later date. He highlights 2024 as a successful year for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second part of the trilogy, noting its global acclaim and award wins. The third installment presents unique challenges as the developers strive to expand the game's fanbase. Interestingly, Hamaguchi also cited Grand Theft Auto VI as a noteworthy title this year, expressing his support for the Rockstar Games team and acknowledging the immense pressure they face following GTA V's phenomenal success.
