Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth fans, there’s a new update out – but don’t get too excited. Square Enix has dropped update 1.080, mainly focusing on fixing some small technical problems. Here’s what you need to know.
On December 24, 2024, Square Enix released update 1.080 for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. If you’re playing on PlayStation 5, you’ll be glad to hear that some annoying DualSense controller issues have been resolved. Meanwhile, all eyes are on the future, especially with the game’s upcoming PC launch in January.
Heads up: It’s not just Rebirth getting an update – Final Fantasy 7 Remake also got some love with the new 1.003 patch!
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Update 1.080 Patch Notes
This update is a minor one, but it addresses an important issue:
- DualSense Vibration Fix: Players had reported that their DualSense controller wasn’t vibrating properly during certain in-game moments. This patch fixes that problem completely, according to Square Enix.
That’s pretty much it for this update. No big surprises here, especially since the last major patch, which brought PS5 Pro enhancements, just dropped a month ago.
New patches for Final Fantasy VII Remake and Rebirth are now available to download.
Update to Remake PS5 v1.003, Epic Games Store/Steam v1.005, and Rebirth v1.080 resolve issues where the DualSense Wireless Controller's vibration was not working correctly.
