Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Boost Mode Cuts Clear Time to Less Than Half

A free update for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth adds Boost Mode, a suite of cheats that dramatically reduces playtime. The author tested it and found clear time dropped below half of normal play, with battles ending in one hit and scenes skippable at 2x speed. The mode is available on all current platforms.

The average clear time for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is 91 hours, or 48 hours and 30 minutes for the main story alone. The Boost Mode added via a free update on June 3 compresses that dramatically. The author, who enabled all game boost settings, reported that battles end in one hit against weak enemies and in a few hits against bosses with event gimmicks. Scene fast-forward can be set to 2x speed. The mode is available on Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC, and can be toggled off at any time.
