The sequel to the 2020 released Final Fantasy VII Remake, titled Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, is finally going to be available on the PC platform on January 23, 2025. The game first debuted on the PS5 platform back in February 2024, but now, PC players can also join in on the fun. The Final Fantasy trilogy has been one of the best, if not the best one out there, generating a huge fan following. With the recent trend of releasing remakes, the developers at Square Enix decided to provide fans with the much-awaited entries. That said, as the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC is on the horizon, there’s an ample amount of curiosity from players regarding what the game will offer. One such query is regarding whether the game will support ultrawide and superultrawide screens. If you do have such screens, then consider reading our take on the matter as to whether the upcoming remake will support these aspect ratios.
When you consider all the recent releases of games in the Final Fantasy series, including remakes, one thing is pretty clear. There will not be any native ultrawide support available. Although a few sources did claim that ultrawide screens will be supported by FFVII Rebirth, there was no credible statement from the developers to back such statements. So, at least for now, it won’t be far fetched to say that FFVII Rebirth on PC will not have native ultrawide support. But does that mean you won’t be able to play the game on your ultrawide screens without black bars?

While it is pretty clear that native ultrawide and superultrawide support will not be available in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PC, there is always the modding route. Past remakes in the series have also been modded to make them compatible with ultrawide screens, and we expect the same for this game as well. Since modding is a complex task, you will need to wait a day or two after the game’s full release on PC to get access to a compatible mod that will enable the remake to run on your ultrawide setup with the infamous black bars.
Which mod to consider?
Well, when it comes to ultrawide/superultrawide mods, the Flawless widescreen mod is one of the most popular ones out there. Next is the Lyall mod which is also popular among Final Fantasy players. You can choose any, depending on which mod gets updated first to include support for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.
