Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Stealing The Show Achievement Guide

Blaine SmithFebruary 29, 2024

An achievement in FF7 Rebirth asks you to Win the prize for Outstanding Performance in Junon Parade. This Stealing The Show Achievement Guide for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth goes over exactly what you need to do in order to unlock this achievement and win both awards at the Junon Parade.

To obtain the Stealing The Show Achievement you need to complete two unique tasks. Firstly, when you are in Junon for the Junon Parade during the main story, you need to make sure you recruit the entire Seventh Infantry. You can technically continue the story after finding only 5 of the Seventh Infantry but if you want this achievement, you will need to find all 10. You then speak to your Captain and change the Parade Formation. You want Riot Trooper – Riot Trooper – Grenadiers – Grenadiers – Flametroopers.

Other variations work but you need the two Riot Troopers together and two Grenadiers together to get the biggest Formation Bonus possible for this lineup. This also creates the Ramuh Formation, Shiva Formation, and Bahamut Formation at max difficulty, 3 stars.

You then need to complete the Junon Parade with those formations. You need a final score of over 100,000. I was able to achieve this by finishing Ramuh 100%, Shiva 100%, and then I had 1 Good hit on Bahamut. So, you don’t need a completely perfect run to reach the 100,000 score, but it needs to be pretty close.

Finishing the Junon Parade with over 100,000 wins you both awards at the ceremony at the end and also unlocks the achievement.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Junon Parade FAQ

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

In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, there exists a hidden conclusion to the Junon Parade. This nostalgic nod harkens back to the original game, where your performance garnered praise. Within FF7 Rebirth’s rendition of the Junon Parade mini-game, securing both accolades at the event’s culmination unlocks a clandestine finale.

Can You Beat Roche In The Junon Parade?

Yes, Roche can be defeated in the Junon Parade. If you complete the Junon Parade mini-game normally, on the easiest difficulty, Roche and his band of biking buddies will claim the Outstanding Performance Award. However, if you track down all of the Seventh Infantry in Junon, you can unlock a Formation that adds a hard mode difficulty that, if scored over 100,000 points, defeats Roche, wins the Outstanding Achievement Award, and unlocks a new cut-scene.

How Do You Win The Outstanding Performance In The Junon Parade?

Winning the Outstanding Performance Award requires two things. Firstly, you need to find all of the members of the Seventh Infantry, located in Upper Junon. You can progress through the story after just finding 5 of these soldiers but if you want to win the Outstanding Performance Award, you need to find ALL of the Seventh Infantry members. You then setup the hard mode formation that gives you the hard difficulty on all three formations. Then, participate in the Junon Parade, and score over 100,000 points. This will win you the award.

What’s The Best Formation In The Junon Parade

In the Junon Parade Mini-game, the Formations play a crucial role in determining the game’s difficulty level. Upon uncovering all members of the Seventh Infantry, players gain access to various formation configurations, spanning from easy to medium or difficult settings. Yet, for those aiming to outmatch Roche and secure the coveted Outstanding Performance Award, leveraging the Hard formations is indispensable. As such, the best formation is the 3x hard formation.
