Chocobos
The traditional mascot of Final Fantasy is back in the 8th sequel. You can
use them for transportation on the world map. You can catch them in many Chocobo forests all over the world. (See side quests
section of page)
Ragnarok
In Final Fantasy 8, the crew gets to fly Ragnarok, a futuristic vessel that
is designed for maximum mobility. It is fitted with two high output engines that give it manoeuvrability on a par with conventional
aircrafts, armed with a 609mm charged particle beam cannon and two 152mm multi-barrel laser cannons.
Trains
Trains were used quite a bit in Final Fantasy 7, but only within Midgar
itself. Trains in Final Fantasy 8 form an integral part of the transport system. The SeeD even have their own special train
to get them on priority missions quickly and easily.
Cars
A new addition to a Final Fantasy game is the car; introduced to keep up
with the modern image Final Fantasy 8 is trying to convey. Cars can be used to drive along roads but you can also drive them
off-road. If you run out of fuel you can purchase fuel from item shops. You rent them from shops which are located in the
major cities, such as Balamb, and they are painted in different colours depending on the city of origin. In Balamb, the cars
that you rent are red.
