The best Final Fantasy 7 Remake mods
Add some cosmetic chaos to your time in Midgar.
Looking for the best Final Fantasy 7 Remake mods to improve your experience in Midgar? Since the launch of the remake in December, modders have been busy finding ways to improve or simply change the way the game looks and feels. And while Square Enix's engine doesn't allow for extensive alterations, there's still some fun to be had.
So if you're ready to change Cloud's hair colour, add more materia slots to your gear, or just generally tweak your cosmetic experience, this guide will help you get your desired results. Here are the best Final Fantasy 7 Remake mods.
The best Final Fantasy 7 Remake mods
Purple Dress Tifa
As the name suggests, this mod puts Tifa in the purple dress for most of the game. She usually wears this dress for a short time during one mission later in the game, assuming you chose the 'mature' option early on. The silver dress (sporty) is here, and you can find the exotic dress here.
FFVIIHook
This mod unlocks the dev console, letting you get rid of dynamic resolution, which attempts to keep the frame rate stable by adjusting performance during busy scenes. It's a solution that can help out lower-end PCs, but it doesn't do much for anyone else.
Equipment Rebalance - Increased Materia Slots
This mod adds an additional materia slot to all weapons, giving them a new cap of seven slots. Most armour also gains an extra pair of linked materia slots. In addition, this mod also adjusts some of the stat balancing on gear, giving armour more defense.
Gorgeous Dress Cloud
I couldn't possibly leave this one out of a FF7R mods list. This one puts Cloud in his Gorgeous Dress for the entire playthrough—cutscenes and battles included. Bonus points if you can keep a straight face during some of the more serious moments.
Sexy Dress Aerith
Like the Tifa mod above, this one gives Aerith her red dress for the whole game, even during battles. The variants are also available for the Cheap Dress and the Ordinary Dress.
Advent Reshade - HDR FX
This mod adds HDR lighting effects to Final Fantasy 7 Remake without having to sacrifice too much in the way of performance. Whether you choose to use this depends on personal preference, but if you think the game looks at all washed out, this mod should help brighten up those colours.
