Listen to our podcast, One More Life!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of elements from the original that have been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/final-fantasy-7-rebirth-piano-location\/\" rel=\"noopener\">padded out<\/a> for Rebirth, and this romancing section is one of them.<\/p>\n<p>So, how do we get a date with Tifa this time around? And what about the more burly and muscular options? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to romance Tifa in FF7 Rebirth explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to take the alternative choice in this part of the love triangle, you\u2019ll need to actively make some choices prior to the date in the Gold Saucer.<\/p>\n<p>So, how do we romance Tifa? Well, in Final Fantasy Rebirth, the romancing mechanic has been padded out into a whole <strong>new system called Bonds of Friendship<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few ways to increase your bond with Tifa, but let\u2019s start with the decisions you make across the pre-date <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/final-fantasy-7-rebirth-chapters\/\" rel=\"noopener\">chapters<\/a> in the main story:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 4, Dawn of a New Era<\/strong>, you\u2019ll disguise yourself in a military uniform and infiltrate the Junon parade, celebrating the arrival of new president Rufus Shinra. Putting on a decent show in the parade and beating the other team will strengthen your Bond of Friendship. Bear in mind that this will also strengthen your bond with Aerith.<\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 6, Fool\u2019s Paradise<\/strong>, you\u2019ll want to make Cloud\u2019s outfit match Tifa\u2019s. So if you choose Wild Surf for Cloud, choose Shining Spirit for Tifa. Also, before the boss fight, make sure you\u2019re in Tifa\u2019s party.<\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 8, All That Glitters<\/strong>, if you\u2019ve been building a strong bond with Tifa beforehand then she\u2019ll be your partner in the Rosa in the Loveless play. Get a high score in the play to strengthen your bond further.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<script src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvideo.io\/players\/gv.js\" data-license-key=\"f0cf5e3e9068d9a4affa36d5c8962eaf1a0662ba\"\/> <div style=\"width:50%;min-height:100vh;overflow:hidden;aspect-ratio:16\/9;position:relative;\"> <style><![CDATA[ .gvtext1, .gvtext2 { animation-duration: 5s; animation-iteration-count: infinite; animation-direction: alternate; width:100%; } .gvtext1 { animation-name: gvtext1; } .gvtext2 { animation-name: gvtext2; } @keyframes gvtext1 { 0% { opacity: 1 } 47% { opacity: 1 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 100% { opacity: 0 } } @keyframes gvtext2 { 0% { opacity: 0 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 53% { opacity: 1 } 100% { opacity: 1 } } ]]><\/style> <div style=\"font-family:arial;font-size:smaller;position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;background:rgb(208, 208, 208);border-radius:30px;display:flex;text-align:center;align-items:center;\"> <div class=\"gvtext2\" style=\"position:absolute;\"> Green Video Post Element <br\/>Video ID: \"a6ba65bdfbb6184146412b144ecf26b71ea57747\" <br\/>Mix ID: \"\" <br\/>Player ID: \"Tw3-XowQ\" <\/div> <div class=\"gvtext1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"> If the player doesn't appear here within a few seconds, the Player ID or Licence Key (set via IM Green Video settings) might be invalid. <\/div> <\/div> <green-video embed-id=\"Tw3-XowQ\" content-id=\"a6ba65bdfbb6184146412b144ecf26b71ea57747\" mix-id=\"\"\/>\n<\/div> <p>There are also quite a few moments in the game prior to the date where you need to respond to Tifa in the right way. This is one way to make your \u201cbond\u201d with her as high as it can be, increasing your chance of choosing her on the night.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll list those moments, and the right response, down below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 2, A New Journey Begins<\/strong>, in front of the mako tank, Tifa will ask you \u201cThis tank remind you of anything?\u201d Respond with<strong> \u201cThe place I made that promise to you.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 4, Dawn of a New Era<\/strong>, at the Junon Inn, Tifa will ask you \u201cDo you remember a guy named Emilio?\u201d Respond with <strong>\u201cOnly person from the village I remember is you.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 6, A New Journey Begins<\/strong>, at the mini bar on the beach, Tifa will say \u201cFeels like it\u2019s been ages since Seventh Heaven.\u201d Respond with <strong>\u201cLot\u2019s happened since then.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 9, The Planet Stirs<\/strong>, follow the trail from the flower alter to find Tifa outside a house. She will ask \u201cWhat sorta thing would you go for?\u201d Respond with <strong>\u201cGonna go with pot roast.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>In Chapter 10, Watcher of the Vale<\/strong>, in the crowd Tifa will ask \u201cDid I sound as awkward as I felt?\u201d Respond with <strong>\u201cYou just gotta laugh it off.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul> <p>There are also a few side quests, the completion of which will improve your bond with Tifa. They are the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A Rare Card Lost<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Calling All Frogs<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Dreaming of Blue Skies<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Gold Cup or Bust<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Bodybuilders in a Bind<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>My White-Haired Angel<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You should also pay attention to the first time you use synergy skills. If you execute them successfully for the first time with your partner, the Bond of Friendship will grow with them!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Are there other romance options in FF7 Rebirth?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>However, the date at the Gold Saucer isn\u2019t just between the Cloud-Aerith-Tifa love triangle. <strong>Cloud can also take Barret, Red XIII and Yuffie for a ride in the big wheel.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re not all romantic in nature, but if the Bond of Friendship is higher in any of these characters, they\u2019ll be the lucky wheel companion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Listen to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/one-more-life-podcast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">One More Life podcast<\/a> and subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/gaming-newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gaming newsletter<\/a> for all the latest intel.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for something to watch?
