Though there are some subtle changes, the main story of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth should feel comfortably familiar to fans of the original game.

From there, they’ll make their way to the forgotten capital, with plenty of unforgettable action taking place along the way. Game Rant’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth walkthrough will cover all 14 chapters, while also offering up individual guides for some of the puzzles and decisions that players will be faced with throughout their journey.

Main Story Puzzles and Decisions
Side Quests and World Intel
There’s significantly more side-content on offer in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth than there was in Final Fantasy 7 Remake. In addition to having ten more side quests, Rebirth also boasts six large open-world-style areas in which players will need to complete special objectives for Chadley known as World Intel. Completing World Intel grants access to new Combat Simulator battles and unique Materia, so players will definitely want to set aside some time to fully explore all six regions. This section of Game Rant’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth guide will focus on both side quests and World Intel, with walkthroughs and tips for some of the game’s trickier tasks.
Weapons, Materia, and Equipment
Much like in its predecessor, there’s a surprising amount of versatility on offer in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth when it comes to the game’s combat and the way that players build their parties. All of the playable party members have access to seven unique weapons, each with its own unique weapon strengths and weaknesses. There are many different types of Materia too, allowing players to set up their party so as to best suit their playstyle. Here, they’ll be able to find information about every weapon in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, as well as where they can find some of the best Materia, equipment, and items that the game has to offer.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Trophies
Including the platinum Trophy, there are 61 Trophies available in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Unlocking all of them will take both skill and dedication on the player’s part, not to mention at least two full playthroughs of the game. Some of the Trophies will unlock automatically as part of the main story, with others tied to certain side quests, mini-games, and challenges. In this section of the guide, players will learn how to unlock every Trophy in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, with both a full Trophy guide and individual guides for some of the game’s more difficult Trophies on offer here.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Mini-Games
The original release of Final Fantasy 7 featured plenty of fantastic mini-games, and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth did an excellent job of recognizing this fact. However, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth takes things to a whole new level, boasting more than enough mini-games to put even a Yakuza game to shame. Some of these mini-games are there just as distractions, but a lot of them will need to be engaged with as part of side quests or the game’s main story. This section of Game Rant’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth guide will focus on some of the game’s more challenging mini-games or those which can reward players with weapons and other useful prizes.
