She still punches and kicks her way to victory and her Chi system is fundamentally unchanged.
As such, we’ve added some more details to help you get a handle on how she plays.
Square (Holding Down)
Holding the ‘Square’ button will have her performan uppercut.
Triangle (Single Press)
Pressing ‘Triangle’ will have her unleash her stacked special attacks one by one.
She is all aboutlanding hits rapidly and countering opponentsbefore they have a chance to fight back.
Because of this, the majority of her abilities activate absurdly fast so that her combo is never disturbed.
This means that knowing all of her moveset is essential to being able to win battles with her.
Button mashing will get you nowhere with Tifa.
Higher level Limit Breaks ca be used throughincreasing Limit level through Synergy Abilitiesin combat.
This significantly increases stagger.
A major part of her is her ability,Unbridled Strength.
Using this has Tifa increase her Chi Level, which in turn adds another move to her Special Attack.
The three stacked moves are as follows:
Whirling Uppercut
The default Special Attack.
Omnistrike
Added at Chi Level 2, that has Tifa perform a shoulder bash on the enemy.
The ability Unfettered Fury, gained from the Crystal Gloves, also increases Tifa’s Chi Level.
Unfettered Fury and Unbridled Strength can be used interchangeably.
While on Chi level two with Unfettered Fury, using Unbridled Strength will bring you to Chi level three.

Focused Strike
This operates as both an offensive and evasive move.
Tifa quickly doges backwards and follows up with an attack that increases stagger immensely.
While on the ground, it has Tifa attack an enemy and drags them both into the air.
If used while airborne, it has her instead drag the enemy to the ground with her.
This ability has Tifa generate a static orb of chi that deals constant damage to any enemy touching it.
Each attack of the ability deals more damage than the last.
Using this on staggered enemies increases their stagger multiplier as well as the length of stagger.
This increases the length and potency of an already staggered enemy.
This raises their limit levels.
Eliminate your foes with Masamune and the intimidating presence of Sephiroth himself.
