Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth introduces chocobos in a significant way, making them essential for exploring every region of the game. These lovable creatures not only help you navigate the world with their special abilities but also look stylish while doing so, thanks to a variety of gear options. Furthermore, the gear enhances your chocobo’s performance in races, increasing your chances of winning. If you’re looking to gear up your chocobo, here’s a guide to all the Chocobo Gear available in the game and how to acquire it.
All Chocobo Gear and how to get it
Most Chocobo Gear can be purchased at tack shops, conveniently located near chocobo stables. As you progress through the game, new gear becomes available at these shops, eliminating the need to backtrack. However, some gear can only be obtained by participating in chocobo races at the Golden Saucer.
To buy Chocobo Gear, you’ll need golden plumes, which you can earn by locating and repairing chocobo stations in each region or catching new chocobos during the story.
There are three types of Chocobo Gear: head, torso, and legs. You can mix and match them to suit your chocobo’s racing needs and preferences.
