Just as one might expect from a role-playing game, weapons play an important role in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, with each granting access to powerful new skills that can help turn the tide in battle. Every playable character who officially joins the party has access to seven different weapons, most of which will need to be found inside purple chests or purchased from weapons vendors. Cloud is no exception in this regard.
How to Get Every Weapon in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
There are 49 weapons in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, each of which has its own unique ability. This guide will explain how to find them all in order.
Other than his iconic Buster Sword, all of Cloud's weapons in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth can be found in chests, meaning players will need to keep their eyes peeled as they make their way through the main story. Most of the chests are out in the open and so are very difficult to miss, but there are one or two that have the potential to elude players if they're not paying close enough attention.
If players miss any of Cloud's Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth weapons, they'll be able to purchase them from a weapons vendor after completing the chapter in which the weapon can first be found. For some reason, though, Cloud's Sleek Saber can be purchased before players have finished Chapter 2.
