Modder ‘DOD3NieR’ has released an amazing mod for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth that lets you play as Reno and Rude. This mod replaces Cloud and Tifa with these two Turks, and both of them have their own unique skills and moves.
Going into more details, players can hold normal attack to perform Haymaker for Rude and Counterattack for Reno. They can also use “Unbridled Strength” till “Rise and Fall” to access more normal attacks.
The bad news is that the mod does not replace the voices of Cloud and Tifa. As such, you will hear Reno or Rude with Tifa’s voice. This is kind of a bummer for such a mod. Yes, it’s a really cool mod. But man, it would have been even better if it had AI voices for Reno and Rude.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a video for it. This video will give you a pretty good idea of what you can expect from it.
Speaking of FF7 Rebirth, I also suggest FF7RebirthFix. This mod lets you adjust the gameplay FOV, unlocks the framerate, and adds support for ultrawide or narrower displays. Its latest version also improves shadow cascades. Thus, you won’t see shadows constantly changing right in front of you.
In February 2025, we also shared a must-have 4K Texture Pack for it. This pack overhauls over 3900 textures. And trust me, the game desperately needed a 4K Mod as a lot of the vanilla textures looked bad.
Then we have this amazing first-person mod. This is another must-have mod for FF7 Rebirth. This mod lets you explore the world of the game in first-person mode. During fights, it switches back to a third-person viewpoint. As such, it feels like an official first-person exploration mode. It’s really cool, so be sure to download it from here.
Finally, you can read our PC Performance Analysis for this game. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth feels a bit better than FF7 Remake. While it also suffers from shader compilation stutters, it doesn’t appear to have any major traversal stutters. It also plays great with KB&M during exploration and fights. However, some of the mini-games are unplayable with it.
Have fun!
