Ultimate Guide to Acquiring All Weapons in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Discover the 49 unique weapons scattered throughout Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, each with its own special skill. Unravel the secrets to obtaining every weapon in this comprehensive guide.
In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, there are seven main playable characters, each with access to seven unique weapons. Fortunately, players won't miss out on any of the 49 weapons because they can purchase most of them from a weapons vendor later on if they initially overlook them. The remaining weapons are linked to specific side quests and mini-games, which are accessible until players reach a crucial point in Chapter 13.
While buying weapons can be costly, players may want to avoid spending too much. Instead of providing a comprehensive list of all the weapons in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, we have organized them in the sequence they can be acquired. By doing so, players can be on the lookout for purple chests as they progress through the main storyline.
Readers should assume that every weapon in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is found in a purple chest unless stated otherwise. For more information on the location of a specific weapon, simply click on its name in the table below.

Editor's P/S:
As an article writer, I am pleased with the structure and organization of this article. The clear sequencing of weapons based on acquisition order provides a valuable roadmap for players, allowing them to prioritize their search for purple chests while progressing through the main storyline. The use of a table for weapon listing is also effective, as it allows readers to quickly identify the name and location of each item.
However, I believe the article could be improved by including more specific details about the side quests and mini-games associated with obtaining certain weapons. This information would be particularly helpful for players who may not be familiar with the game's mechanics or who are looking for a more comprehensive guide to weapon acquisition. Additionally, providing some insight into the strengths and weaknesses of each weapon would enhance the article's usefulness for players making strategic decisions about their character builds.
