Square Enix has released a minor patch for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC, which should show up as version 1.003 to players. This is aimed to fix technical issues, and even lower the disk size for Steam Deck players.

Don’t expect any new content from any updates released, as Square Enix will surely announce it if one is planned. And also, the developers are hard at work on Chapter 3 of the remake trilogy.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC Now Has a Smaller File Size for Steam Deck Gamers

Clocking in at 18Gb, players might see that it’s around 270GB, though it’s not really eating up your harddrive that much, but rather, its how Steam unpacks game updates. Rest assured, the file download is just 18GB in size (which is still a lot for something this minor).

Here’s what’s new per Square Enix:

  • Improved overall game stability, including several bug fixes.
  • Fixed an issue where the application sometimes crashes while playing the game on a PC using certain AMD Radeon™ products.
  • Reduced the package size when downloading on Steam Deck.

Yep, that’s about it for this update. We’re not expecting a lot of updates for the game outside of a few technical ones released from time to time.

Go read our review of the PC version where we state, “While there is not much reason to get the game on PC already if you already played through it fully on PlayStation 5, adding in the ability to play portably on the Steam Deck, as well as the fact that the the PC port is still every bit as impressive as the game was when it released prior and is finally available for those that were not able to play prior, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for PC is not one to overlook.”
