Final Fantasy 7 Cheat Codes
Curious about the Final Fantasy VII Port? (Final Fantasy VII Cheat Codes)
The remake of Final Fantasy VII is expected to come out in March of 2020. In the meantime, interested individuals might want to check out the port of Final Fantasy VIII that has been released for the PS4 for some time now. This is particularly true if they are unfamiliar with the original game but have an interest in seeing how the remake turns out because the port can provide them with a very useful basis of comparison.
What Are Some Cheat Codes and Other Secrets For the Final Fantasy VII Port?
Here are some of the things in the Final Fantasy VII port that players might want to keep an eye out for:
Mid-Battle Cheat Codes
It is interesting to note that the Final Fantasy VII port has some real cheat codes that can be used in the middle of combat. First, there is a cheat that can be used to fill not just all allies’ HP and MP but also all allies’ Limit Break gauges, which can be used by hitting R3. Second, there is a cheat that can be used to prevent encounters, which can be used by hitting both L3 and R3. However, please note that this is limited to preventing random encounters, meaning that players shouldn’t expect it to override forced encounters as well. Third, if players feel that Final Fantasy VII is too slow for their liking, there is a simple and straightforward solution that will speed it up by three times that can be used by just hitting L3.
Grind Cactuars For Gil (Final Fantasy VII Cheat Codes)
For players who need more gil, one of the best methods is grinding Cactuars out in the desert situated close to Corel Prison. However, this comes with a couple of serious problems. One, Cactuars make up just 1 out of 16 encounters that can be found in the region, meaning that interested individuals can expect to fight a lot of Land Worms in the process. Two, Cactuars have a very high Evade combined with outright immunities to most elements, thus making it a serious challenge to kill them before they can retreat from the battle. With that said, players are by no means helpless if they choose to hunt some Cactuars.
For example, Grenades can be very useful as a source of damage when fighting Cactuars. Likewise, both Choco/Mog and Matra Magic see frequent use because they are non-elemental sources of magical damage available to the player at this point in the game. However, if players insist on using weapons, they should consider equipping their team with the highest-accuracy weapons that they can find for the best chances of hitting Cactuars. Even then, this isn’t the recommended course of action because there are less frustrating methods for inflicting damage on these elusive enemies.
Taking On Emerald Weapon (Final Fantasy VII Cheat Codes)
There are a couple of super-bosses in Final Fantasy VII. One would be Emerald Weapon, which can be found at the Bottom of the Sea once Meteor has been summoned. Said super-boss is a serious challenge, meaning that interested individuals need to make some serious preparations to ensure their success.
For starters, Emerald Weapon has to be beaten within 20 minutes unless players have the Underwater Materia. Theoretically, it is possible to beat Emerald Weapon within this limit. In practice, well, interested individuals are recommended to pick up the Underwater Materia from the Kalm traveler.
Attack-wise, Emerald Weapon has a number of options. For example, its Emerald Shoot can hit a single character for thousands and thousands of damage, which are in addition to it cancelling most positive status effects. Meanwhile, its Emerald Beam can hit the entire team for about 63 percent of their HP, which is in addition to it removing the Regen status effect. With that said, Emerald Weapon’s most dangerous attack is the Aire Tam Storm that deals 1,111 damage to each character multiplied by the number of Materia equipped on them.
Please note that the attacks made by Emerald Weapon change based on whether its eyes have been killed or not, meaning that players will want to attack these enemies with care and consideration. In particular, please note that Emerald Weapon won’t use the Aire Tam Storm unless its eyes are present, though using Knights of the Round to remove the eyes is a bad idea because that is an automatic trigger for the attack.
Strategy-wise, players have a number of options. One excellent example would be combining the Gravity Materia with Quad-Magic for close to 40,000 HP in a single round, which should make the battle proceed faster than otherwise possible. Another would be the good, old-fashioned option of just maxing out stats with Guard Sources and Mind Sources before going in with level four Limit Breaks plus Knights of the Round Materia with W-Summon. On top of that, consider the mastered Phoenix Materia plus the mastered Final Attack Materia for insurance.
Taking On Ruby Weapon (Final Fantasy VII Cheat Codes)
Ruby Weapon is even more challenging than Emerald Weapon, which is why interested individuals might want to make use of more exploitative methods. For instance, consider entering the battle with two fallen teammates but make sure that the last teammate has the Phoenix Materia on them. This will prevent Ruby Weapon from unleashing its full repertoire. Furthermore, once Ruby Weapon has chosen to stick its claws in the ground, use the Phoenix Materia to revive the fallen teammates before proceeding to the full-powered beatdown.
With that said, there is another option that consists of entering the battle with two fallen teammates while the last teammate has a combo of HP Absorb, Knights of the Round, W-Summon, and Mime. The idea is to use Hero Drink to boost the last teammate’s attack capabilities before unleashing the Knights of the Round for a powerful attack as well as a powerful heal. Afterwards, the players should repeat the move again and again by using Mime, which might not be a particularly glamorous way to win the battle but is nonetheless something to consider for those who are struggling.

Note: Hyphens separate individual buttons, and buttons grouped in parentheses with a plus sign mean to press them together. For example, “(L1 + Triangle)” means to press L1 and Triangle simultaneously, where “X – Square” means to press X, then press Square.
