Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC: A Comprehensive Guide
The highly anticipated sequel to the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, arrives on PC on January 23rd, 2025. Unlike its predecessor, Rebirth offers multiple editions for PC players, along with pre-order bonuses and save data rewards. This guide breaks down everything you need to know to choose the perfect edition for you.
Where to Buy Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC
PC gamers can purchase Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Unfortunately, a GOG release is not planned, leaving these two platforms as the only options. Both stores will offer the game at the same price.
Pre-Order Bonuses & Save Data Bonuses
Pre-Order Bonuses
Pre-ordering Final Fantasy VII Rebirth before January 23rd, 13:59 (UTC) unlocks these bonus items:
- Summon Materia: Moogle Trio
- Armor: Shinra Bangle Mk. II
- Armor: Midgar Bangle Mk. II
Note that these items might be sold separately later. However, a compelling reason to pre-order is the current 30% discount on all editions, valid until the release date.
Save Data Bonuses
Carry over your save data from Final Fantasy VII Remake to unlock additional content:
- Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (main campaign): Unlocks the Leviathan summoning materia.
- INTERmission DLC: Unlocks the Ramuh summoning materia.
Ensure you use the same account and that the save data is on the same PC where Rebirth is installed.
Different Editions of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC
Two editions are available: Standard and Digital Deluxe.
Standard Edition
The Standard Edition ($69.99, $48.99 with pre-order discount) includes only the base game and the Posh Chocobo summoning materia (included in both editions).
Digital Deluxe Edition
The Digital Deluxe Edition ($89.99, $62.99 with pre-order discount) adds:
- Digital Art Book
- Digital Mini Soundtrack
- Summon materia: Magic Pot
- Accessory: Reclaimant Choker
- Armor: Orchid Bracelet
Digital Deluxe Edition Upgrade
A $20 upgrade is available for Standard Edition owners who wish to obtain the Digital Deluxe Edition content later.
Is the Digital Deluxe Edition Worth It?
For most players, the extra cost of the Digital Deluxe Edition may not be justified. While the art book and soundtrack are nice extras, the additional in-game items offer minimal impact on core gameplay. The Standard Edition offers excellent value for those primarily interested in the main game.
