  • Sony is currently considering how to respond to the manufacturing error.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth‘s physical edition discs in Japan and several Asia regions have a printing error. It was reported on Square Enix’s official website that, due to the printing error, players will have to install the game using the “Play” disc and play the game using the “Data” disc. It was also reported that Sony Interactive Entertainment is currently considering how to respond to the printing error.

The printing error isn’t present in most other regions globally. Players from other regions that have purchased Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s physical edition can play the game without any issues. However, Japanese and a few Asian region users will have to use the “Data” disc to play the game.

It remains to be seen how Sony will deal with this issue going forward and how it will compensate the customers affected by the manufacturing error.
