Final Fantasy 7 Remake: PS5 and PC are getting the ‘Streamlined Progression’ features coming to Switch 2 and Xbox

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is about to get some welcome quality-of-life upgrades as it arrives on Nintendo Switch and Xbox next week. Both platforms will finally receive the ‘Streamlined Progression’ features that were introduced on PS5 and PC earlier this year. This means smoother gameplay transitions, faster load times, and revamped menu navigation designed to cut down on downtime and keep players more immersed in Midgar’s sprawling world.

The additions are part of a broader effort to unify the experience across all platforms, especially now that the remake is available beyond its original PlayStation ecosystem. For longtime fans and new players alike, these tweaks should make revisiting the beloved classic feel fresher and more responsive, regardless of which console they choose.

As the game joins Nintendo and Microsoft’s platforms, this update reinforces Square Enix’s commitment to refining Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s gameplay and accessibility. Expectations are high, and given how much the original release leaned on hardware strengths, these smoother progression features might just be the boost some players need to dive back in.
