Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Is Getting Another Patch to Improve Performance Mode | Push Square
pushsquare.comSquare Enix is lining up another patch for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, reports One More Game. As was the case with the previous update, the goal is to improve Rebirth's Performance mode, which has been heavily scrutinised since the game's demo launched last month. While the previous patch did make some positive adjustments, the mode still suffers from a dynamic resolution that can dip to noticeably muddy levels.

He does, however, mention «scary» character faces, referring to the lack of proper lighting effects during gameplay. Hopefully that's just one area where things are improved.
For what it's worth, Rebirth's Performance mode isn't terrible — it's just disappointing. Last week, a technical analysis from at Digital Foundry highlighted a number of issues that hamper the game's visuals, which really do range from incredibly pretty to downright ugly.

I've been pretty happy with the performance mode myself. The 60 fps is worth it and honestly it still looks incredible for the most part.
Still, improvements are always welcome so bring it on.
