As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the recent developments surrounding the PS5 Pro-enhanced versions of beloved games like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth have left me quite puzzled and amused.

In the enhanced PlayStation 5 version of “Final Fantasy 7 Remake”, there seems to be an issue resulting in Tifa Lockhart appearing as if she’s losing her hair, which is one of the game’s more beloved characters. However, this updated look for Tifa is receiving some negative feedback from fans of the “Final Fantasy” series.

Back in late February of 2024, I got my hands on the much-anticipated Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, exclusively for the PlayStation 5. Fast forward to early November, Sony introduced an upgraded version of our beloved console, the PlayStation 5 Pro. This bad boy boasts improvements in memory, rendering, and storage space compared to the original PS5. At its launch, over 50 games were optimized for smooth performance on the PS5 Pro, including Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. So, whether you’re a hardcore gamer or just dipping your toes in, it’s safe to say that the gaming experience has been taken to the next level!

In the PS5-enhanced version of “Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth,” there are numerous improvements and additional features, one of which is a new Versatility Mode that merges the original Performance mode’s smooth 60 FPS frame rate with graphics and rendering similar to the game’s Graphics Mode. However, some players, such as Reddit user Ok_Faithlessness4288, have noticed an apparent flaw in Tifa’s design – during certain scenes, her scalp can be seen through her long hair, making it seem like she has patches of baldness. The player has experienced the game in both Performance and Graphics modes on the PS5 Pro, but only the Versatility Mode appears to cause this unusual balding effect.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is Having Problems on PS5 Pro

Some enthusiasts are poking fun at Tifa’s inadvertent new appearance due to humor. A few have made light-hearted comments about Tifa’s storyline in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth being quite tense, as intense stress can potentially cause hair loss. Others speculate that her peculiar hairstyle is a consequence of Mako contamination.

It appears that not only Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is facing problems with its PlayStation 5 Pro enhanced version, but also other games like Silent Hill 2 Remake and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor have encountered issues. For instance, Bloober Team had to address graphical issues with Silent Hill 2 Remake’s PS5 Pro-enhanced version due to complaints that the upgraded version was performing worse than the original modes on PlayStation 5. Similarly, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor initially experienced visual problems like flickering textures and missing lighting elements on PS5 Pro, despite being one of the first games announced for a PS5 Pro-enhanced version. EA, the publisher of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, has acknowledged these issues and is currently investigating their cause as reported on November 18.
