Items in Final Fantasy VII Remake include recovery and offensive items that can be obtained from boxes, treasure chests, item drops, and as quest rewards. During a battle, items require one ATB charge. Holding on the field, the menu does not close after using an item, allowing the use of multiple items at once. This makes healing the party with potions easier.
In hard mode, items cannot be used. Item Master Materia improves the efficacy of items used by the character, up to +50% greater than their usual effect.
