When Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade was announced earlier this year, Square Enix outlined how it changed the textures and lighting, as well as adding mist effects. Some changes were more subtle.
During today’s Sony Online Event, Final fantasy producer Yoshinori Kitase has undergone the changes in the PS5 version. Most of the information was new, but while the lightning improvements were outlined, the well-known host Hatsune Matsushima noticed something and asked if the tree had changed.
The tree in the Shinra building looks different. But, I do not really know if it is different or if the lighting improves looks different.

It really looks like Square Enix has done more than just slap a coat of PlayStation 5 paint on the new version. According to Kitase, this was the first time for a Final fantasy game to create a dedicated team of lighting professionals, who moved light sources around the game to illuminate the scenes like in a Hollywood movie.
The lighting improvements are definitely noticeable! The tree improvements, less so.
