Square Enix shared a new Final Fantasy VII Rebirth clip showcasing the new item crafting system. Players can collect ingredients from the field and use recipes to create new items on the fly. Each time a player creates a new item, they will gain experience to level up their crafting skills. Some recipes require reaching a minimum crafting level in order to be able to create new items.
Some of the initial items that players will be able to craft in FFVII Rebirth include Potions, Mist Potions that recover 350 HP to all allies, Phoenix Medicine (known as Phoenix Down in English), Antidotes, Smelling Salts, and Echo Mists.
In particular Mist Potion, Phoenix Medicine, and Echo Mist appear to require a Crafting Level 2. If players don’t have enough ingredients for a particular recipe, these recipes will be marked in red. As players find new recipes and hone their crafting skills, they will be able to create increasingly rare items.
