Final Fantasy 7 Remake will be released for PS4 on Friday, April 10. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, some PS4 owners have already received their copies and will be diving headlong into Midgar.

For PC gamers, however, there is no good news, we're afraid. Final Fantasy 7 Remake is only available on the Sony console. The Final Fantasy series has a history with Sony consoles over the years. While other franchise entries have been released on PC - and other platforms - Final Fantasy 7 Remake is not coming to PC.

Well, for the moment anyway. At the moment, it's only available on PS4, but there have been rumors of a possible PC port. According to the game's physical copy box art, as posted by Twitter Wario64 last December, Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a timed PS4 exclusive for one year. This means that it could be ported to other platforms in 2021.

The dataminers also discovered possible PC port specifications hidden in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake demo code. Twitter user roXyPS3 posted images that revealed higher resolutions, as well as NVIDIA and AMD support, in the demo. The screenshots have since been removed, but the tweets are still there.

Finally, we know that other PS4 timed exclusives have worked or are working on PC. Death Stranding was exclusive when it was released in November 2019, but a PC port is coming June 2. Even though Final Fantasy 7 Remake was exclusive to the PS4 for a year, it's not outside the realm of possibility that we might have a PC version of the game this time around next year.

At this time, however, you can only play Final Fantasy 7 Remake on PS4.
