Weapons are totally free if you can find them in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. While Buster Sword-ing through each chapter, you’ll find rare purple chests in dungeons and other story-specific areas. These chests contain unlockable weapons, which in turn unlock unique weapon abilities. These weapons don’t just increase your stats. By equipping a weapon and using its unique weapon ability over and over, you’ll eventually master that ability, permanently unlocking it for your character.

Weapon Abilities are the most important part of finding new weapons, and some of these abilities are total game-changers. If you do miss a weapon during the story, you can usually find it later at weapon vendors in settlements. They’ll charge you a premium for the lost weapon, but they’re worth picking up. Rarely, there are even entirely missable weapons that can only be unlocked by completing special quests or discoveries. Don’t miss out on some of the best weapons and abilities in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Here’s where to find them all.
