Manuscripts are an integral item in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, as they allow you to nab some quick SP for your party members. That’s why we’ve constructed this handy guide on how to get every Manuscript in the game so that you can make your party as strong as possible.
Where to Find Every Manuscript in FF7 Rebirth
From what we’ve been able to gather, there are six Manuscripts tied to each character in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. With seven playable party members in the game, that amounts to a total of 42 Manuscripts for you to gather over the course of your experience.
Luckily, this isn’t as much of a scavenger hunt as you might expect. These collectibles can only be obtained in one of four ways: They can be sold as rare items at the Moogle Emporiums scattered around the world; offered in exchange for Gold Saucer Points at the Gold Saucer; given as rewards for completing Quests tied to a given party member; or awarded to you as a prize for completing combat challenges at the Battle Square arena or similar combat arenas.
They appear at a fairly consistent pace too, so you won’t have trouble finding them so long as you’re digging into everything the game has to offer.
To further speed up the process, we’ve listed every Manuscript’s location down below. Bear in mind that these do appear in order of when you can get them, and you can’t obtain the sixth and final manuscript right off the bat. If it doesn’t appear in the location listed — or, better yet, you can’t access the location or challenge yet — consider progressing the main story to open up more of the world and its challenges to you, or completing some unresolved Moogle Intel challenges.

What Do You Get for Completing All Folios in FF7 Rebirth?
As for what you get after you collect every Manuscript in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, it’s fairly substantial.
In addition to getting 12 level-ups worth of SP for every character, you also have the ability to max your characters’ ability grids more quickly. This can make it substantially easier to clear the game’s harder boss fights and challenges, and makes it that much easier to obtain the more difficult trophies tied to them.
That’s all we have on how to get every Manuscript in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. For more on the game, check out our guides on how to get every Summon and how to complete every Quest.
