It seems like Square's finally consistently taking the PC ports of Final Fantasy seriously


Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PC features are looking much, much better than Remake's.

Between majorly delayed releases and other not-a-bang-but-a-whimper launches like Kingdom Hearts collection limping onto Steam after three years, Square Enix has consistently fumbled the bag on PC with the games it should have the easiest time selling. After those basics, the Rebirth PC trailer starts hitting on the features we really expect to see in high-end games: DLSS upscaling, granular graphics options in addition to presets, and rebindable mouse/keyboard controls. I'll give FF7 Remake credit for getting that last one right when many Japanese games still don't, but including the keyboard controls in the trailer—and also being able to crank up the number of NPCs rendered on-screen at once—shows Square Enix is serious about courting PC players.
