How To Fast Travel In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

Traditional fast traveling, where you open the map and fast travel to a previously visited location, is unlocked very early in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, through main story progress. Once unlocked, all you need to do is open your map, pick a fast travel location (such as a repaired Chocobo Stop) and then select the fast travel option. There are some nuances to this system. When you reach a new region, such as traveling from the Grasslands to Junon Region, you are often restricted from fast traveling until certain quests or story progress has been met.

Later in the game, when you have unlocked multiple regions, you will often have to use different fast travel locations, instead of just travelling across multiple regions.

How Can You Return To Previous Areas In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

Indeed, in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, none of the main regions remain permanently locked. However, a common occurrence is the temporary locking of previous regions upon entering new ones. For instance, departing from the Grasslands to venture into the Junon Region results in the temporary inability to return to the Grasslands until a specific quest at the Junon Region Chocobo Ranch is completed. This restriction is consistently applied to various locations as you advance through the narrative, ensuring a guided progression in the game world.

How Do You Get A Chocobo In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

The act of finding and unlocking Chocobo’s is relatively straightforward and it remains the same through all of the early regions of FF7 Rebirth. You first need to locate the Chocobo’s location, this is marked by a Chocobo feet icon on the map. You can then track these prints to find the Chocobo exclusive to that region. Chocobo’s found in a region can only be used in that region, as they have unique traversal abilities only available in that same reason. There is usually a mini-game associated with catching the Chocobo, once found. Simply complete the mini-game to unlock the Chocobo.

How To Fly In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

In FF7 Rebirth, the ability to fly eventually becomes accessible, albeit with distinctions from the original Final Fantasy 7 game. Unlike the unrestricted flight across the entire world in the original, flying in FF7 Rebirth via the Bronco serves as an extension of the fast travel system. It enables you to efficiently revisit multiple regions without reliance on boats or ports. While it doesn’t offer the same level of exploration for uncovering secrets and treasures as the original game, it streamlines traversal across previously visited areas, enhancing overall convenience and efficiency in your journey.

Is Cid in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

Cid is a popular character name featured across most of the Final Fantasy games. He’s usually a pilot, a wrench, a tinkerer of sorts. Final Fantasy 7’s Cid is one of the main characters that you can unlock and he returns in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. However, he is not a playable character in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and merely acts as a friend to the party to aid with their adventure.
