11Alongside its main scenario, Final Fantasy Resonance carries a slate of optional quests. The director put the count at around 30 to 40, depending on how they are tallied, and most of them are character stories.2233What the Quests Cover4455Side quests are all-new scenarios written for this game rather than content carried over. They spotlight Rain and the other main characters as well as the supporting cast drawn from the source game; see Relationship with Final Fantasy Brave Exvius for how the rebuild treats that material. Many of the episodes fill in pasts and relationships among the cast. The director described the majority as character-focused, and the producer added that puzzle-style quests and minigames round out the variety.6677The game's public Steam achievement list includes Conscience Renewed, earned by clearing all party member substories.8899Rewards10101111Completing a side quest grants rewards tied to the featured character. Side quests also gate real power: some Visions are earned by clearing sub-quests that open up as the story progresses, and espers, the game's summons, are unlocked through story progress and side quests as well. Quests also feed Vision Awakening: an official Japanese system video published on September 28, 2026 lists quest rewards among the ways to collect magicite, without specifying which quests.12121313Place in the Wider Game14141515Optional content extends past quests into a dedicated endgame layer with the wandering swordmaster Gilgamesh, a Colosseum, and more; see Side Content and Endgame. Developer playtime estimates bracket the difference: 30 to 40 hours covers the main scenario, while engaging broadly with the optional layer pushes a run to 60 to 80 hours.16161717Confirmed Side Quest Lines18181919Three optional quest lines were confirmed on July 16, 2026.20202121LineWhat It InvolvesRewardTablet shardsCollecting shards strewn about the world.Items, scaling with how many you have gathered.Mechabo upgradesSpecial subquests tied to Lid's mechanical chocobo.New skills for Mechabo, and a stronger partner in battle.Adamantite gatheringFinding adamantite in treasure chests inside dangerous crypts, and as side-content rewards.Aileen forges powerful weapons for the party from it.2222The Mechabo line is notable because it attaches a party member's combat growth to optional content: Square Enix's wording is that completing the subquests unlocks new skills and helps it grow stronger. Espers are also unlocked partly through side quests, so optional content feeds several systems at once.23232424Early quest coverage25252626The early quests below are a partial listing, not a full quest count. The estimate of around 30 to 40 remains the director's description of the overall slate. The free demo released on September 3, 2026 covers the opening through the end of Chapter 1 under level caps, so it shows only the start of that slate. Clearing a minigame pays out items, and the individual minigames are covered at Minigames.27272828Early quests and rewards29293030QuestReward highlightsDream of an IdealistFlamberge; 500 GilSecrets UnearthedMagicite Shard; Monk's Prayer BeadsThe Weight of MercyIwakirimaru; 500 GilRear Support, Ahoy!Magicite Shard; 500 GilThe Elven MavenMagicite Shard; 800 GilArise, Mechabo!Magicite Shard; repaired MechaboMechabo EvolvedMagicite; Mechabo Tackle; OverclockLyrical RiddlesMagicite Shard; 800 GilA Medicinal MissionMagicite Shard; 1,500 GilThe Tide from the SkyMagicite Shard; 1,500 Gil3131Two early magicite quests32323333For Secrets Unearthed, collect three core samples in Kolobos Ruins and return to Chloe in Felicitas.
