Many players encounter DirectX 12 errors that block Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth from starting. The root cause often stems from the Windows version. DirectX 12 requires Windows 10 or 11. Older Windows versions are incompatible.

Troubleshooting DirectX 12 Errors

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

Open the Windows Start menu.
Type "dxdiag" and press Enter.
Check the "System Information" section for your DirectX version.

If DirectX 12 is installed and the error persists, the problem might lie with your graphics card. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has minimum hardware requirements. Check Square Enix's official website for the recommended GPUs:

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

An outdated or insufficient graphics card can trigger these errors. Upgrading your GPU might be necessary for a smooth gaming experience.

This guide covers resolving DirectX 12 errors in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. For further assistance, consult Square Enix support or online gaming communities.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is available now on PlayStation and PC.
