There will also be a Graphics Optimization Mode that prioritizes displaying graphics at 4K resolution and a Performance Optimization Mode that prioritizes maintaining a 60fps framerate.
A Normal (Classic) difficulty will also be added, and it makes FF7 Remake feel a bit more like the original with battles feeling more turn-based.
Another glimpse of Yuffie’s new episode is also shown, and gives fans a glimpse of the brand new story that will be part of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade.
The trailer also reiterates that any who own Final Fantasy VII Remake on PS4 (except those who only have the PS Plus version) will be able to upgrade to this improved PS5 version for free. However, the PS5-exclusive Yuffie episode will cost extra for all owners of the original.
Following Intergrade, which will be released on June 10, Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s creative director Tetsuya Nomura confirmed that there will be no future DLC and that the team’s focus will be on completing the next entry in the FF7 Remake saga.Have a tip for us?
