  • Discovery

The second chapter of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth introduces you to just how big the map really is. This is also your chance to learn everything there is to know about world intel and riding on different regional Chocobos. After this chapter, you can follow along with the rest of the chapters in our comprehensive guide for the entire game.

You will gain access to the open world in the second chapter of the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and also get achance to fight the Midgarsormr, the game’s first major boss. This doesn’t have to happen during this fight, but it would be a good idea to use a Summon for the first time here. This is where I earned the Fledging Summon trophy.

The purple quests that you’ll encounter while you’re here are not locked to this chapter. You’ll be able to return and complete them at any time without worry. This will also be the first time that you use your party members. You’ll get the chance to use Barret, Tifa, Aerith, and Red XIII right from the start, with more joining you later. This is also the chapter in which you’ll be wrangling your first chocobo, which I have written a guide about how to attain!
