Story
In his first mission to Midgar, Johnny is told to meet up with a man named Zack. After wandering through the sector slums, a voice asks Johnny what he's doing. Johnny replies that he's looking for Zack. The voice replies that he knows where he is. Johnny turns around to find none other than Zack Fair. They team up and head for Edge, the town outlying Midgar. There they meet Cloud and Tifa, two of Zack's friends. Zack then tells Johnny about their mission: they need to get the Highwind from Cid Highwind and meet with Cecil of the Radiant Garden. But before they head to see Cid, Zack wants to check out the Sector 5 church. They go over and look and see a couple of kids playing with the flowers.

They head to Junon to get the Highwind from Cid. However Cid wants them to get him parts from the machine shop in the Radiant Garden. They head over to the Radiant Garden, and get the parts from the Moogles. As the two approach the Postern of the castle, Zack sees a flower girl. He runs up and hugs her. The girl smiles and hugs him back. Johnny is curious of this action, but Zack explains that the girl was Aeris Gainsborough, and that he was wanting to see her for a long time.

Fighting Style
Zack's job class is a SOLDIER, delivering powerful blows and Limits. His solo Limit Break is the Unseen Omnislash, where he uses several of Cloud's Limits and his own Rush Assault to inflict 15 hits on an opponent. The way the limit works is that Zack starts with 5 hits of Rush Assault, then the first two hits of Cross-Slash, then he hits with a form of Blade Beam (he charges up the Buster Sword instead of sending out a beam), and attacks with Climhazzard, knocking the opponent up in the air. The next 4 hits are from Omnislash and the final blow is Braver.

Zack is fought as a boss in Johnny's story when he visits Midgar the second time. Zack, having been told that Johnny is a traitor, attacks him on the pillar holding up the Sector 7 plate.

Music Themes
Zack is represented by his theme in Birth by Sleep. When Johnny battles him, the theme The Summoned from Crisis Core plays.
