A comprehensive guide on how to find Dark Matter and use them to craft FF7 Rebirth’s powerful end game accessories
As you approach the end-game portion of Final Fantasy VII/FF7 Rebirth, you may find yourself needing better gear. The Item Transmuter will provide options for crafting some of the strongest accessories to help in your battles. However, there is a key ingredient necessary–Dark Matter. In this FF7 Rebirth guide, we will show you where you can find Dark Matter and how to craft the best accessories in the game.
What is Dark Matter and how to find them?
Dark Matter is a rare material that you’re able to use to craft a number of strong late game accessories. It is only obtainable after reaching Chapter 12 of FF7 Rebirth through minigames and side quests. The following is a list of all Dark Matter locations and what you need to do to get them.
Note that you need to first complete Chapter 12 to acquire the Dark Matter from Dolphin Show, Desert Rush, Cactuar Crush 3, and Cactuar Crush 4. Dolphin Show, in particular, is only accessible after completing the “Tides of War and Worry” side quest.
How to use Dark Matter in FF7 Rebirth
Dark Matter is used to enhance a special set of accessories that require world boss materials such as the Quetzalcoatl Talon or Tonberry King’s Robe. Therefore, you need to complete the relevant side quests and regional intel missions beforehand. Next, you need to obtain the Item Transmuter Chip “Ultimate Accessories” in order to enhance said accessories. You can get it by beating the Musclehead Colosseum “Harmony of Discord” combat challenge.
Once you have the Dark Matter and other necessary ingredients, you may finally craft and enhance powerful accessories to help progress through FF7 Rebirth’s end game. The accessory base and enhancement recipes are as follows:

Pirate Jetsam and Gold Saucer materials
On top of Dark Matter, you need additional unique materials to craft the accessories. To obtain Pirate Jetsam, find treasure chests across Meridian Ocean with Cid’s Tiny Bronco. This is easier once you have completed “The Pirate King’s Treasure” side quest, which allows you to craft the Corsair’s Compass accessory. The compass will notify and guide you when a treasure chest is nearby.
The remaining materials such as the Gold Talon or Burnished Crown are purchasable at the Gold Saucer. Speak to the GP (Gold Saucer Points) Trader in the following areas to purchase them for 700 points each:
