The PC version of Final Fantasy XIII, which launched last month with basically no graphics options whatsoever, will receive an update next month that will let you play the game in 1080p.

"The Final Fantasy XIII team have been working hard to improve your experience on Steam and we're happy to announce the following changes will be rolled out at the beginning of December," Square Enix wrote on the game's Steam page.

Changes introduced in the Final Fantasy XIII update include custom resolutions up to 1080p and unspecified "graphics options," Square Enix said.

GameSpot installed Final Fantasy XIII on PC in October and found that configurable options are limited to basic elements like difficulty, subtitles, and camera. The game is also currently locked at a maximum resolution of 720p--though a third-party plugin was released that brings the game's resolution up to 1080p.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Lightning Returns are also coming to PC through Steam, and are expected to launch by spring 2015.

<< LINK REMOVED >><< LINK REMOVED >> or simply built from the ground up… most "exclusive" console games (if not all) are all based on consoles specs (not hardware, but software-wise with certain tools) that may not work well on PCs due to porting (to the OS library and gfx cards etc)


otherwise, get them all, PC and consoles to play them all where they are meant to be played

@Ahiru-San @grenadehh That "meant to be played" is such a stupid mentality, why shouldn't you be able to enjoy games on your preferred platform be it whatever? If a game is made for it, ported or specifically made, then it's also expected to work properly. It's not the fault of PC or console, it just means the developer is incompetent. And why console games shouldn't be ported to PC exactly? Because of couple incompetent devs making s**t on it? Yeah, they're representing all the developers...

Will this also fix the BROKEN "on screen display" setting for keyboard/controller?


At this point, I'm not sure about any of this crap. GoDeSaTo runs terribly for this game at 1080p with graphics set to high, and I don't really blame Durante because it's absurd to have to use this mod in the first place. Maybe he'll update it. Maybe Squeenix's patch will make this game actually enjoyable at 1080p. It's not my card. If a crappy 360 or PS3 can run this trash game, when my new droid is faster than them, then I'm pretty sure my GTX 750 shouldn't be having any issues.


Let this be a lesson to the specific japanese team who ported this (because Squeenix normally has no problem with this): Do not f this up again, even less people care about the next two in the trilogy despite them being better.

I am officially replacing my use of the word "fail" with "Final Fantasy XIII".
