Square Enix announced in the 2024 Game Awards that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will be finally coming to PC, releasing on January 23, 2025, on Steam and Epic Games. They also confirmed the system requirements for the PC, giving out a list of specifications to run the game on Minimum, Recommended, and Ultra settings.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is the second game in the trilogy that is remaking the entire Final Fantasy 7 (1997). The developers released the previous game, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, for PC on December 16, 2021.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PC Release Date Announcement

Square Enix is prepared to release Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC after a year of its PS5 release. The game also had a PS5 Pro enhancement patch released in November 2024, which optimized the game to use the upgraded specs of the PS5 Pro.

But despite the enhancement patch and the PC port announcement, the game will not be released with DLCs, unlike its predecessor, Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s INTERmission Expansion. Square Enix has said that as of now, they are focusing on the development of the next Final Fantasy game in the trilogy.
