This announcement confirms that the update appearing on February 21, 2024 that adds a Junon segment to the FFVII Rebirth demo will also improve the visuals in Performance mode.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will come to the PS5 on February 29, 2024. The demo will update with Junon content on February 21, 2024. The PS5 exclusivity arrangement expires on May 29, 2024.
