Chocobo Sam (voiced by Masashi Sugawara in Japanese)
A Chocobo handler in Wall Market, Chocobo Sam is another prominent figure with the authority to approve women for Corneo’s auditions. He runs a delivery service called Sam’s Delivery. He also happens to be an avid gambler—though he’s hooked more on the rush than any money he may win.
Battle Introduction: Barret
Barret’s gun arm makes him an ideal long-ranged fighter. Push the square button, and Barret will fire a volley from his machine gun. You can also hold down the button for an extended salvo.
Unique Ability
If you press the triangle button, you can use Barret’s “Overcharge” attack. Not only is it more powerful than standard shots, it fills a large portion of his ATB gauge.
Bear in mind that once used, it takes a long time to recharge this attack—but you can speed up the reload process by pressing triangle again.
Abilities
When Barret fills his ATB gauge, he can use one of his special abilities. Here are just a couple of the things he can do.
—Focused Shot
This ability uses up all available ATB charges to deliver a powerful attack. Not only does it do good damage, it also fills up an enemy’s stagger gauge—get that to max and they’ll be susceptible to even more damage!
—Lifesaver
This ability definitely lives up to its name! After activating it, Barret will share some of his HP with allies when they take damage.

The World of
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Wall Market
Built on the ruins of the collapsed Sector 6 plate, Wall Market is Midgar’s biggest—and most infamous—entertainment quarter. It’s run by Don Corneo and is almost entirely free of Shinra’s influence. It’s an incredibly lively area that offers plenty of… let’s say ‘intriguing’ ways to pass the lonely nights.
Corneo Colosseum
Located beneath the bustling streets of Wall Market, the Corneo Colosseum gives brave fighters the chance to engage in brutal battles against both man and monster. Winners of a colosseum bout receive glory, fame, and a substantial reward.
The Honeybee Inn
Situated in Wall Market, the Honeybee Inn is the area’s premier nightclub, and offers nights few will ever forget—as its staff frequently remind its patrons. Every night, audiences are dazzled by the Honeybee Inn’s gorgeous cast of honeygirls and boys. This unique venue also provides private rooms for its more discerning customers, allowing them to enjoy time in private with the performers of their choice.
Leviathan evokes a savage beauty as it rises from the briny depths, generating tidal waves that wash foes away.
