Much like its predecessor, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth separates its side quests by chapter, with players unlocking more as they progress through the main story. The game's twelfth chapter introduces more new side quests than any of the chapters before it, providing players with plenty of potential distractions before they make their way to the Temple of the Ancients and the game's thrilling conclusion.
