Here in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Chocobos can also be used to compete in Chocobo Racing and locate treasures in Excavation Sites.

Types of Chocobo

There are various types of Chocobos in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and they all possess unique abilities such as gliding through air, jumping high, and climbing mountains. Below are the Chocobo types that have been confirmed in the game.

Chocobo

The iconic yellow chocobo that appears in most of the Final Fantasy titles. They are commonly used for land transportation, but they can also be used to participate in the Chocobo Racing mini-game.

Sky Chocobo

These chocobos can soar through the sky by taking off from high places. They can be used to traverse the sky and reach valleys or peaks easier.

Mountain Chocobo

Mountain Chocobos have sharp talons that can climb up slopes with special markings. Some places are inaccessible by foot, but with the help of these chocobos, you will be able to reach them in no time.

Ocean Chocobo

Ocean Chocobos have the ability to use strong water streams to cross seas, rivers, and other bodies of water. By using their ability, you can get to places that cannot be reached on foot or unveil secret treasures from hidden areas near the water.

Forest Chocobo

Forest Chocobos have the ability to jump from huge mushrooms and tree branches. By using their abilities, you will be able to look at forests from a higher point of view and see the location of treasure chests or even the right path to take.

How to Capture a Chocobo

Sneak behind a wild chocobo.

As you play the game, you will come across wild chocobos that you can capture and tame. To do this, you will have to sneak behind them, catch them off guard, and mount them.

Use the bushes to hide your presence.

Wild chocobos are cautious and will run away once they have seen you. Therefore, take advantage of the bushes and hide your presence until you are within range to mount the chocobo.

Use stones to distract the wild chocobo.

Stones are usually scattered around the area whenever there is a wild chocobo. Pick up the stones and throw them behind the chocobo if it is facing you. Doing so will distract the chocobo and turn its attention to the thrown stone, giving you an opportunity to mount it.

Is there a Chocobo Breeding feature in the game?

The Chocobo Breeding feature will not be available in the game.

As per the game director, Naoki Hamaguchi, there will be no Chocobo Breeding feature in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. However, he stated that the new chocobo capturing feature has been enhanced. Regardless, with all of these new features added to the chocobos, it is still something to look forward to and will undoubtedly be a great and fun experience.
