Many players encounter DirectX 12 errors preventing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth from launching. The primary cause is often an incompatible Windows version. DirectX 12 requires Windows 10 or 11. Older Windows versions may not support the necessary DirectX version.

Resolving DirectX 12 Errors

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

Open the Start menu and type "dxdiag".
Select "dxdiag".
Navigate to the System Information section to check your DirectX version.

If DirectX 12 is installed and the error persists, the problem might stem from your graphics card. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has minimum GPU requirements. Check Square Enix's official website for the complete system requirements. The recommended GPUs include:

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

Upgrading your graphics card might be necessary if your current one doesn't meet the minimum specifications.

This concludes the troubleshooting guide for DirectX 12 errors in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Remember to check your Windows version and graphics card specifications.
