Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth: All Collectible Locations in Chapter 1

In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, you might need an extra hand if you want to find all the collectible locations in Chapter 1. Some items are very well hidden, and it is almost impossible to casually get one. You could come across a few, but for others, you need to know where they are.

As an open world, Rebirth’s map is huge, and most items won’t be easy to reach. If you don’t know the exact point where they can find them, you probably won’t get them. Having some inside information in advance on where to look or an exact guide that says where to find the collectibles is very useful.

All Hidden Collectible Locations in Chapter 1

There are a lot of collectibles that can be found in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and knowing the location of all items in Chapter 1 can save you hours. Stop running around and look for:

Wind Materia

This is the first collectible you should be looking for. You can find this Materia in the Reactor Location.

You will need Tifa to find this one, exactly when you reach a dead end with a broken bridge. When she says, “Hey! Not that way!”, You should turn left and climb a few rocks until you reach a green orb.

HP Up Materia

Head to the Northern Ridge-Foot region. After completing a tutorial about benches, get up and beside that exact bench, you should find the Materia.

Level Boost Materia

After reaching the Mako Measurement Facility, enter the Shimra facility. Instantly after getting inside, go up and to the right. You should see the Materia right there.

Empowerment Materia

In the Northern Ridge-Foot, where you find the HP Up Materia, you can get this one. Defeat a new group of enemies, and finish the tutorial. After this, follow the path ahead until you reach a cave. You will find a green orb in a large, open section.

Spare Change Materia

If you continue forward into the cave we mentioned before, you will find this Materia. Just follow the main path, kill all the enemies you come across, and stop when you reach the two crooked trees.

You will get a cut scene too, if you haven’t, you need to keep walking. Climb the large ledge on your right and get the orb.

Magnify Materia

From the previous location, keep going and fighting enemies until you get another cut scene. When you reach the wooden plank bridge, look for a cliff edge, following the highlighted spot. Climb down and claim the blue sphere.

Defense Focus Materia

After you fight the ZU, look for the first flight of stairs you will see. From here, climb the ledgers and reach a platform. You will find the purple Materia here.

Auto-Cast Materia

After you get the Defense Focus Materia, go to the Appraisal Drilling Site, which is very close by. Climb a bunch of stairs until you reach a pile of crates. The orb is sitting on top of the crates.

Comet Materia

Finally, when you reach the area where you sucked up Mako gas, before going to the elevator, go northwest.

Look at the platform, and, if you are careful, you will find a lower platform. Jump there and look for the Materia hidden inside a pile of boxes.

These are all the collectible locations in Chapter 1 of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth that are very difficult to find. Alongside those Materia orbs, you might come across some chests and extra items that aren’t collectibles, but you could get them.
