Final Fantasy 7: How to Transfer a PS4 Save File to PS5

Players can transfer their Final Fantasy7 save files from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 to prepare for the Intergrade update. With the release of Final Fantasy 7 Intergrade, players are eager to try out the new content on their PlayStation 5. This DLC is exclusive to the PS5, and the game received an official upgrade with tons of little bonuses. The upgraded version includes improved visuals, customizable performance to prioritize graphics or frame rate, an extensive photo mode, and DualSense enhancements. For fans looking to play the game again or carry over their content to Intergrade, they will need to bring over their save file from PlayStation 4. This guide will show players how they can do this.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake was one of the biggest games to release last year. It came out right around the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, but this did not stop Square Enix from selling millions of copies. Final Fantasy 7 Remake became a favorite of many fans. Players spend their time in Midgar grinding for XP, collecting items, and completing every side quest available. Players will likely want to carry this content over when Part 2 eventually comes out. This guide will show players how they can carry over their Final Fantasy 7 Remake PS4 save file to their PS5.

How To Bring Over Your PS4 Final Fantasy 7 Save File To Ps5

Many PlayStation Plus owners should have their save files automatically uploaded to the cloud and available to download on other platforms. To set this up for Final Fantasy 7 Remake, players should boot up their PS4 and select the menu button while on the Final Fantasy 7 Remake icon. From there, select Upload save data, and the save file should appear in the cloud.

To transfer the uploaded save data on PS4 to PS5, players should start their PS5, open Settings, scroll down to Saved Data and Game/App Settings, and choose Saved Data (PS4). They should choose Cloud Storage and download the newly uploaded Final Fantasy 7 Remake save file. Once the player boots up Final Fantasy 7 Remake on their PS5, they will have everything they need to continue where they left off.

The new Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade DLC will tell a smaller chapter of the story, starring Yuffie from the original game. The story is slightly different from the original, but it remains unknown how substantial those changes will be. Only time will tell how significant these changes are to the full Final Fantasy 7 story.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is available now on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.
