Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is finally here, but it’s not making its grand debut for the first time. While the game has been available on the PS5 platform for almost a year, it recently went live on PC via Steam and Epic Games for the first time, allowing a whole new wave of players to experience its stunning world. But if you’ve already played Final Fantasy VII Remake, its INTERmission DLC, or even the FFVII Rebirth Demo, you’re in for a treat! You can claim exclusive save data bonuses as a reward for your journey through Midgar and beyond.
Talking more about the rewards, you can receive the Leviathan Summoning Materia from the FFVII Remake Intergrade main story, while saved data from the FFVII Remake Intergrade INTERmission DLC grants you the Ramuh Summoning Materia. Additionally, if you played the FFVII Rebirth Demo on PS5, you’ll get the Kupo Charm and Survival Set—which PC players can also earn by watching eligible Twitch streams for 30 minutes during a limited-time event. Anyway, let’s get back to claiming these save-data bonuses.
Final Fantasy VII (FFVII) Rebirth Save Data Bonus: How to claim it
Now before we get into how to redeem these rewards, let’s quickly go through the fix for players who had played the game earlier through Epic Games and now want to switch to the Steam version. That way, everyone will be on the same page before we move on with the redeeming process for PC and PS5.
How to transfer saved data? (EPIC to Steam)
If you’re trying to transfer your Final Fantasy VII Remake save data from Epic Games to Steam to claim your FFVII Rebirth save data bonuses, here’s how you can do it.
- First, head over to C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games and create a new folder named FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE if it doesn’t already exist.
- Inside that folder, create another directory called Steam, and within it, create a subfolder using your 17-digit Steam ID. How to access your Steam ID? Simply open Steam, go to the top right corner of Steam where your name is displayed, and select the Account Details option. Here, you will find your Steam ID.
- Next, copy all your FFVII Remake save files (*.sav) from the Epic Games save into this new Steam ID folder. The Epic Games saves should be in this directory: C:\Users\user>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE\EOS\
- Once you’ve done that, launch FFVII Rebirth and check if the game is able to detect the saves of FFVII Remake. If it does, you are all set to collect the bonuses you have earned!
How to claim the Save Data bonus?
Without further ado, follow the steps given below to claim your rewards on PlayStation 5 and PC.
- Launch Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on your platform (PS5 or PC).
- Start a new game, and you should see a pop-up asking to check for any potential save data bonuses.
- Select “Check”, and the game will verify whether you qualify for any rewards.
- If you have followed the steps properly so far, you should receive a notification that will confirm the bonuses you’ve acquired.
If you’ve already started playing FF7 Rebirth and didn’t check for bonuses initially:
- Go to the game’s main menu before loading your save and then click on the “Bonuses” option.
- The game will now scan for eligible save data rewards.
Can’t see the items in the game?
Keep in mind that your save data bonuses won’t be immediately available at the start of the game. To redeem and use them, you will have to play through Chapter 1 and reach Chapter 2. Once you reach the Grasslands, open the in-game menu > System > DLC/Bonuses. Here, you’ll see a list of all the saved data bonuses you’ve unlocked. Select the rewards, and they will be added to your inventory for use. Now, you’re all set to enjoy your Leviathan and Ramuh Summoning Materia or Kupo Charm and Survival Set in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth!
