In this Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Card Carnival Solutions Guide we will walk you through how to beat every challenge Card Carnival has for you. You'll want to complete Card Carnival if you want to obtain every Queen's Blood card.
Queen's Blood is an extremely fun and competitive card game added to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. While there's a full storyline linked to the different ranks you can obtain there are also a variety of tournaments and even a puzzle mode known as Card Carnival for you to engage with.
Where is The FF7 Rebirth Card Carnival?
To play Card Carnival travel to the docks of Costa Del Sol. You'll come here naturally as part of the Costa Del Sol storyline when you're in control of Cloud.
Later in the game (Chapter 12), when you come back to Costa Del Sol, a series of harder challenges will have unlocked.
What is Card Carnival?
Card Carnival is a Queen's Blood challenge mode where a number of ally and enemy cards are placed on the board and you start with a static hand. Using just the cards available to you you need to win the game.
As you play no enemy cards will be added to the board so you just need to work to analyse how you can turn the tides of battle to your side with what you have in your hand.
