Yuffie is a sneaky little ninja with a kleptomania complex, but she is a classic in the Final Fantasy world.

The player can encounter Yuffie during random battles in forests. If she is defeated, she may join the party depending on the player's dialogue choices. An incorrect answer causes her to steal some of the party's money and flee. Near the end of the game's first disc, it is possible for the player to set Cloud Strife up on a date with either her, Aerith, Barret, or Tifa. During the date with Yuffie, she kisses Cloud in an awkward sequence. If the Wutai continent is visited before the party's raid in Midgar, Yuffie steals the player's materia and flees to the town of Wutai, where she plays several tricks on the party to get rid of them. In the end, she gives the materia back after being saved from Don Corneo. In another sidequest, she must prove herself to her father Godo by beating the bosses of Wutai's five-story Pagoda, including her father himself. If successful, Godo asks Cloud to take Yuffie with him on his quest, and the party receives the Leviathan materia.

In Before Crisis, the player can encounter Yuffie in Wutai. In Advent Children, she goes to Midgar in search of the kidnapped children and joins the other characters in their fight against Bahamut SIN. In "Reminiscence", an extra scene featured in the film's DVD edition, Yuffie attempts to contact Cloud to visit Barret and gives Cloud a gift: a "closed for business" sign to be used for his shop. The staff of the film admits in the DVD's audio commentary that the box of materia that Cloud keeps in the church is indeed Yuffie's. In the novella "Case of Barret", part of On the Way to a Smile, it is mentioned that Yuffie teaches wushu to the children in Wutai in the period between Final Fantasy VII and Advent Children. In Dirge of Cerberus, Yuffie joins the World Regenesis Organization and assist Vincent several times throughout the game, notably infiltrating the Mako Reactor Zero in the ruins of Midgar and shutting it off while Vincent defeats the members of Deepground. Yuffie is set to appear in the upcoming Crisis Core during a sidequest.

Yuffie appears in the three games of the Kingdom Hearts series. In the first game, Yuffie is first seen in Traverse Town after the battle between Sora and Leon. Along with him, Cid and Aerith Gainsborough, she fights to defeat the Heartless who had destroyed their world. Yuffie also appeared in the Olympus Coliseum in an optional fight with Leon or alone. In Kingdom Hearts II, Yuffie aids Leon and the others as part of the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee, this time appearing in her Advent Children attire. During the ending credits, we see Yuffie giving a sea-salt ice cream to Cid, while Yuna, Paine and Rikku immediately stole hers, prompting the ninja to run after them.

Yuffie is a secret playable fighter in the PlayStation version of Ehrgeiz along with Tifa, Cloud, Sephiroth, Vincent and Zack. Yuffie also makes an appearance in Itadaki Street Portable along with Cloud, Aerith, Tifa and Sephiroth.
