Fix DirectX 12 Errors in Final Fantasy 7

Frustrated with Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth DirectX 12 (DX12) errors on PC? This guide helps you troubleshoot and resolve this common issue preventing game launch.

Understanding DirectX 12 Errors in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Many players, especially those who didn't play at launch, encounter DirectX 12 errors that block Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth from starting. The problem usually stems from an incompatible Windows version. DirectX 12 requires Windows 10 or 11.

Resolving DirectX 12 Errors

If you're using Windows 10 or 11, verify your DirectX version:

1. Open the Start Menu and type "dxdiag."
2. Run "dxdiag."
3. Check the System Information section for your DirectX version.

Users with older Windows versions may need a system upgrade or consider a refund.

If DirectX 12 is installed and the error persists, the issue might lie with your graphics card. Check Square Enix's official website for minimum system requirements. The recommended GPUs are:

• AMD Radeon™ RX 6600*
• Intel® Arc™ A580
• NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2060*

An insufficient GPU will prevent gameplay. Consider upgrading if necessary to enjoy the game.
