Following the PlayStation 5 Pro announcement, Square Enix confirmed that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will be one of the enhanced titles.
The details of the enhancements weren’t provided, but some assumptions can be made. The PlayStation 5 Pro boasts a larger GPU and increased the speed of its rendering by 45%; the ray-tracing has been upgraded at double or even triple the speeds of the base PlayStation 5, and custom hardware for machine learning and an online library called PlayStation Specual Super Resolution (PSSR) provide AI-driven upscaling.
You can view the two screenshots advertising Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PlayStation 5 Pro below:
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the sequel to the first entry in this ongoing Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy effort. This new entry is far more ambitious than the first, occurring until The Forgotten Capital from the original game.
Players can look forward to playable Cait Sith and Red XIII, with Vincent also present. Gold Saucer will be a prominently featured location with plenty of minigames.
Speaking of, the Junon infiltration minigame has been significantly enhanced, with Cloud directing soldiers to form specific compositions. Further, Sephiroth will be playable during the Nibelheim flashback. Combat has undergone a shakeup, with new synergy attacks utilizing multiple party members, and Red XIII has a unique revenge gauge mechanic.
