Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PC – How to Change Resolution

The Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PC version is officially out! Like almost any PC game, the PC version of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth offers the benefit of customizable settings, from high textures to framerate and other graphical options. However, it seems that the PC version also shipped with a minor bug that prevents players from changing their in-game resolution from 1080P.

Don’t worry, though. The fix is super easy, and you can enjoy Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth in 1440P, 4K, or whatever resolution you choose. 

You Can Change Your Resolution in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC to Be Higher Than 1080p

If the above image, which showcases the resolution option as greyed out, looks familiar to you, don’t worry—you aren’t alone. Multiple players have reported the same thing, and I even found myself a little shocked to see that I couldn’t change the setting. Thankfully, the fix isn’t anything crazy, like downloading and installing a mod or going into the config file and changing it there. All you have to do is change your display mode. No joke, it’s that easy, to change resolution in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC, navigate to display mode and switch to Windowed. This will cause the screen to go into Windowed mode and the option to switch resolution will now be available. 

We can only assume this is a bug, but at least it’s not complicated to resolve. 

Sadly, for those looking for secret ultra-wide (21:9 or higher) screen support, you’ll have to wait for Square Enix to officially add it in a potential patch or for someone to release a mod. 

In the meantime, though, I hope everyone enjoys their time with the PC version, and if you get stuck on some things, be sure to check out our Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth guides!
