The strength of Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon was so infamous that fans have worked out numerous ways to defeat them with ease, so long as they have the right combination of items and Materia. The problem with being the top dog is that everyone is gunning for their position. These two goliaths are easily the most powerful monsters in Final Fantasy VII and they have annihilated many unprepared and unworthy parties over the years. Emerald Weapon is a nightmarish abomination that dwells in the darkness of the ocean, which the player can encounter when they acquire the submarine. If the player hunts down and defeats Ultimate Weapon, then a new monster called Ruby Weapon will appear in the desert around the Gold Saucer.

The player has to battle Diamond Weapon and Ultimate Weapon during the story of Final Fantasy VII, but there are two more that are optional encounters. The Weapons are colossal monsters that were created by the Planet to destroy Jenova, but she was already defeated by the Cetra before they could be dispatched, so they remained in stasis for millennia, until they were unleashed once more to deal with Sephiroth. Final Fantasy VII Remake is only focusing on the Midgar section of Final Fantasy VII, which means that fans will have to wait a few years before they can see the return of some of the most iconic monsters in the series – Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon.
