Final Fantasy 7 Remake Shinra VR Combat Simulator
The Shinra VR Combat Simulator lets you take on a variety of different enemies using one or more characters from your party. It is similar to the Corneo Colosseum but pits you against foes from Shinra. The combat simulator can be accessed upon reaching Chapter 16 in the main story.
Ranks 1 to 4 battle challenges can be undertaken upon reaching the combat simulator. Ranks 5 and higher can only be accessed in Hard Mode. These challenges restrict the use of items, making them very difficult to complete. Clearing them, however, allows you to obtain better rewards compared to lower rank challenges.

Can someone beat the top secret one for me?
Does anyone want to beat three person vs top secret for me?
There are guides on youtube with strats, did all of them on the first attempt! The best guide for pride and joy is the set up in the 34 min video. Good luck!
Did you complete three persons vs top secret? (Pride and Joy one)
I’m trying to beat the moth unit. I’ve paired elemental with lightning. The elemental is rank 2. Still taking damage from high voltage and it is one shotting me. I don’t understand why I’m still taking damage
have you paired elemental+lightning on armor or on weapon? it makes a difference
yes.. it says in the description
WEAPON – ADD DAMAGE
ARMOR – Reduce/prevent/absorb…
maybe read first
Make sure it’s in armor slot
Aerith vs soldiers is greyed out even tho I beat the game. How do I unlock it?
Aerith has to be with you aka Chapter 17 before you go to the Drum or Chapter 9 right after you beat Hell House boss in the tourney.
Hi, any tips for the other three characters doing the 3-C SOLDIER Candidates challenge? It is mainly with the MOTH unit for those three.
Set up your Armor & Weapon to Lightning Elements. Use Thunder on Moth to make him stop spinning when needed. As long as you have Elemental rank 2, you’ll take no damage from his special attacks that would typically deal 4-5k damage.
Hello, have you passed the last round against the summons? That if it is really difficult, it is impossible. Any suggestion please
It was hard for me as well but i beat it. Mainly use barret and tifa so you can heal and shoot at the levithan. You want barret to take most the damage and tifa healing as needed
How did you beat it
I have a MAX level 50 Cloud with weapons MAXED. Cloud vs 3C Soldier (HARD)
is impossible. He kills me in under 20 seconds from full 6000+ HP.
And I can’t do squat, ATB takes too long to fill, I die before I can heal or issue a command. utterly rediculas. put me right off the game.
No hope in hell of getting the platinum.
Hey dude, I’ve done this. What exactly is killing you?
If it’s the ultra high voltage in the last part, link an elemental with a lightning materia to stop that killing you, also block. What part is it, I can help.
Definitely doable man. Just start looking at the right materia to use for each sequence of fights. It makes it a brainless cake walk.

I managed this one quite easily after ranking Elemental Materia to rank 2 and paired it with Lightning Materia. However when I actually got to the final battle, I had enough MP to spam Thundaga a few times which won me the fight. MOTH Unit did not even have time to use its powerful attacks. I also recommend closing the distance and using Punisher mode to counter his melee attacks, just hold block and you can get two counters in, roll away and use high tier lightning magic. Heal when you need. His long range saw attack is not too hard hitting if you need to run away for a cure spell.
