Chapter 4 of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth sees Cloud and the party finally making their way to Junon. This cliffside city is home to the devastating Sister Ray Mako Cannon and the Parade Minigame. Before leading the parade Cloud must first discover all Seventh Infantry locations to put together a performance.

This Final Fantasy VII Rebirth All Seventh Infantry Locations and Parade Guide will cover where you can find each infantry group and the best way to configure them for a high score.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth All Seventh Infantry Locations

This sequence starts after Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith have disguised themselves as Shinra soldiers and have reached the streets of Junon. You'll be required to gather up the Seventh Infantry. Collecting five gets you enough to participate in the Parade and progress the story. By collecting all ten you'll earn the 7th, Assemble Trophy and have a better chance of getting a higher score in the Parade Minigame.

Main Street

  1. From the main street where the quest begins walk to the left up onto the walkway looking out over the water. About halfway down this path, you'll see a group of Shinra Troops.
  2. If you look towards the street from #1 you should see a group of Shinra Troops taking photos with a cutout of Rufus Shinra.
    Talking to these Seventh Infantry members will also earn you the Rufus Shinra Cutout Collectors Item that's part of the Treasure Trove.

Inside Stores/Shopping Arcade

  1. Inside the Weapon Shop walk to the lowest floor, which connects to the main street, and there will be Shinra Troops looking at model kits for Sister Ray.
  2. Across the Shopping Arcade from the Weapon Shop, you'll see Rude in front of a sign for The Galbrescent Bar. Follow him inside and watch the cutscene to get these Infantrymen.
  3. On the upper floor of the Item Shop is a group of troops
  4. On the upper floor of the Book/Folio shop is a group of troops
  5. At the far end of the Shopping Arcade walk up the steps to the right and into the bar to find these Shinra Troops
  6. Across the Shopping Arcade from the Bar, you'll see two open buildings. The Barracks on the left and the Garrison on the right. Inside the Garrison go downstairs to talk to Shinra Troops
  7. Across the Shopping Arcade from the Bar, you'll see two open buildings. The Barracks on the left and the Garrison on the right. Inside the Barracks go up one level to find more Sinra Troops.
  8. Travel up another floor from #9 to find more Shinra Troops.

After talking to the final group of the Seventh Infantry you'll earn the 7th, Assemble Trophy. The description reads "Recruit all midgar 7th Infantry units for the parade in Junon"

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Best Parade Setup

Now that you have all of the infantrymen you'll need to organize them to create a parade. You can press L2 to bring up the organization screen.

The Seventh Infantry contains 5x Security Officers, 2x Riot Troops, 2x Grenadiers, and 1x Flametroopers. Depending on how you arrange them the formation of QTEs will be more difficult, but your store is also modified by placing troops of the same kind together.

The above setup might be the hardest Parade to complete, but gives you the best chance of clearing it and earning the president's commendation

To create a formation that's the hardest difficulty with the best modifiers you should include every group that isn't Security Officers. Make sure that troops of the same type are next to each other for the best benefit.

Once you have organized your troops how you'd like you need to talk to the woman at the end of the main street to begin the Parade minigame.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Best Parade Score

To make sure you have a chance to get the highest score you need to make sure you have the following:

  • Hardest Difficulty Formations - Riot Troopers x2, Grenadiers x2, Flametroopers X1
  • Highest Score Modifier - The Riot Troopers and Grenadiers should be next to the troop of the same type

From here you just need to perform the QTEs as well as you can in the Parade performance. It doesn't need to be a perfect performance but if you start to get near double digits of missed inputs it's worth restarting.

Parade Tip: If you don't feel confident in your performance you can press the Start button and Restart to return to the moment before you spoke with the woman to start the Parade.

What score is needed to win the Parade Mini-game is unclear but in our playthrough, we earned over 100K.

Once the Seventh Infantry has been announced as the winner of the Parade you'll receive the Award for Outstanding Performance and Presidential Commendation for Johnny's Treasure Trove, as well as earn the Stealing the Show Trophy
