So ff7r get remastered in ps5 and free upgrade for owner of ps4 version to ps5 version.  nice.  but i guess that means ps4 owner without a ps5 can't play the extra part of the game as yuffie.  *added:  i just watch the trailer again and realize it said the yuffie extra part is available for purchase after upgrading to ps5 version.  that means yuffie dlc is not free but has to be bought separately.*

from the trailer above, the remastered ff7r on the ps5 has somewhat better graphic that is hardly noticeable compares to the ps4 version but the cool thing about it is that it looks like its running at a smooth 60 fps compares to the ps4 version which looks like it running at 30 fps.  the ps5 remastered does looks smoother in motion to my eyes.

*added:  oh, forgot to mention the loading time is much faster on the ps5.  according to the trailer, it takes only like 2 seconds to load a game on the ps5,  i don't know how long it takes to load on the ps4 version but i think its much longer than that.*
