Where To Find The Seventh Infantry In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Blaine SmithFebruary 29, 2024

Part of the Junon storyline in FF7 Rebirth tasks you with locating members of the 7th infantry for the parade. This guide on Where To Find The Seventh Infantry In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will give you everything you need to track down each member of the Seventh Infantry so you can get the maximum rating in the parade mini-game.

The Main Scenario quests tasks you with tracking down 10 units from the Seventh Infantry. You can continue the main story after finding just 5 of the units, but it’s a good idea to find all of them. This unlocks more complicated formations during the parade which, in turn, provides a greater chance of getting a higher ranking.

Seventh Infantry Location #1

You can find the first group of soldiers at this location. There is a bar here. When you arrive Rufus will be outside talking with someone, before he heads inside. Follow him down the stairs and into the bar. After the cut-scene, you will have found your first soldiers.

Seventh Infantry Location #2

You can find another group of soldiers inside the shopping area. They are standing to one side, inspecting the items on sale. Speak with them to locate the second batch of soldiers.

Seventh Infantry Location #3

The third squad of soldiers can be found inside the weapons shop. It’s downstairs, if you are entering from the area upstairs. Near a large model of the Junon Cannon.

Seventh Infantry Location #4

Head to this location, where you find the Inn and the Bookstore. Head into the Bookstore and go up the stairs. You’ll find your next group of soldiers inspecting the wares.

Seventh Infantry Location #5

Head to the Barracks Lobby at this location and then head inside. Once inside, go up the stairs. You’ll find another group of soldiers enjoying their leave.

Seventh Infantry Location #6

You can find this group right after Seventh Infantry #5. Head up the stairs, still in the Barracks, to the Briefing Room. You’ll find another group waiting there.

Seventh Infantry Location #7

There is a group standing outside here, taking photographs with a cut-out picture of the President.

Seventh Infantry Location #8

There’s a group here, near the barrier, looking up at the sky. Speak with them to recruit another group of soldiers.

Seventh Infantry Location #9

Head to the Larboard Garrison Reception area at this location. Once inside, head down the stairs to the storeroom. You will find this group of soldiers there.

Seventh Infantry Location #10

For the final group of soldiers for your drill team, head to this location. There’s a staircase next to an officer in a blue uniform. Follow the staircase up and round to the bar. You’ll find a group of soldiers drinking.

And that’s Where To Find The Seventh Infantry In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. It’s worth doing because without doing this, you cannot get the Stealing The Show Achievement Award and you can’t win the Outstanding Performance award.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Junon Parade FAQ

Are There Secret Endings In The Junon Parade in FF7 Rebirth?

There is a secret ending in the Junon Parade in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This is a throwback to the original Final Fantasy 7 game where you received praise based on your performance. In FF7 Rebirth’s version of the Junon Parade mini-game, you can unlock a secret ending by winning both awards at the end of the Junon Parade event.

What Happens If You Win Both Awards In The Junon Parade?

If you win both awards during the Junon Parade you get to watch a secret cut-scene at the end of the parade. Additionally, when you eventually unlock the Collectibles system (speak with Johnny in Costa Del Sol after the story there is complete), you also get a trophy to display.

Does Roche Always Win In The Junon Parade?

No, defeating Roche during the Junon Parade is achievable. Initially, completing the mini-game on the easiest setting grants Roche and his biking team the Outstanding Performance Award. However, for a more thrilling challenge, players can embark on a quest to find all members of the Seventh Infantry in Junon. This unlocks a Formation that activates hard mode difficulty. Surpassing 100,000 points in this mode not only vanquishes Roche but also rewards players with the Outstanding Achievement Award and a brand-new cut-scene.

What Is The Outstanding Performance Award In The Junon Parade?

Achieving the Outstanding Performance Award in the Junon Parade entails a specific sequence of actions. Firstly, players must diligently seek out all members of the Seventh Infantry, scattered throughout Upper Junon. While advancing through the storyline is feasible after encountering only five of these soldiers, claiming the award mandates locating every member. Following this, activating the hard mode formation, which heightens difficulty across all formations, becomes imperative. Lastly, participation in the Junon Parade and surpassing a score of 100,000 points solidifies the victory and garners the prestigious award.

What’s Do Formations Do In The Junon Parade

The Formations available in the Junon Parade control the difficulty of the Junon Parade Mini-game. If you have found all members of the Seventh Infantry, you can combine them in specific ways to get the best formation. This can be easy, medium, or difficult setting. However, if you want to beat Roche for the Outstanding Performance Award, you will need to use the Hard formations.
