The PC version of the game boasts superior visuals and stability compared to its PS5 counterpart, prompting 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, and we intend to explore this possibility, considering the PS5's performance limitations," Hamaguchi explained.
Fans eagerly await Square Enix's response and potential visual enhancements for the console version.
While the team is actively developing 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 game in the trilogy, citing its global recognition and award wins. The third installment presents unique challenges as the developers aim for expanded fan engagement. Interestingly, Hamaguchi also notes his interest in Grand Theft Auto VI, expressing support for the Rockstar Games team and acknowledging the immense pressure they face following GTA V's phenomenal success.
