Square Enix has released the first Final Fantasy VII Rebirth PC patch with version 1.001 bringing in fixes for the graphics preset on Steam Deck, DirectStorage, and more following the game's launch on PC over a week ago.

For those who play on Steam Deck, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will now launch with the Low preset even when data is synced over the cloud. Hardware that supports DLSS will now default to that being the setting for anti-aliasing with today's update as well. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth launched Steam Deck Verified on PC as well, but it has some issues on the handheld. Read my impressions here.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is now available on PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store).

You can find the complete Final Fantasy VII Rebirth version 1.001 update patch notes from Square Enix below:

[Updates]

Improved overall game stability, including several bug fixes.

Fixed the graphics preset to be set to 'Low' when launching for the first time on Steam Deck, even when save data is linked from the cloud. (The next time the game is launched on Steam Deck, the saved settings will be applied.)

When playing on a PC that supports NVIDIA DLSS, the default setting for 'Anti-Aliasing Method' is now set to 'DLSS'.

The DirectStorage DLL (Dynamic Link Library) has been updated to the latest version.
