Steal Materia Guide: Final Fantasy Vii Rebirth

Learn how to get the Steal Materia in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. Find out its locations, how to use it in battle, and a list of stealable items from various enemies.

It’s not completely obvious how you get your hands on the Steal Materia in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but there are a couple of ways you can obtain it early on in your adventure. You can purchase it from the Items Vendor which can be found on the eastern side of Kalm for 500 Gil or you can check out any of the vending machines which are scattered around the open world and these have a chance to be on offer for as low as a 100 Gil. Additionally, when Yuffie joins the party later in the game she’ll come equipped with a Steal Materia.

You’ll now want to equip the Steal Materia via the Materia & Equipment Option in the menu and then when you’re in battle target your opponent and select the command in order to steal their items. However, we recommend that you use the Assess ability beforehand to see what items are up for grabs. Leveling the Steal Materia which can be done by following our Leveling Materia Fast guide will unlock the Mug Ability which is a slightly improved version of Steal as it’ll allow you to attack the enemy and fill your ATB gauge while stealing the items at the same time.

The majority of enemies in FF7 Rebirth allows you to steal items (outside of certain bosses) and if you’re wondering what some specific item that enemies can drop, such as the ones found in the Grasslands region, check out the table below:
