Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a whirlwind of revamped classics and exciting new additions. Beyond the main story, players can discover thrilling side quests offering fantastic rewards – and the Beast Battleground Challenge is one truly wild ride that’ll test your skills! But how do you find it, and more importantly, how do you survive?
Location
This challenge becomes available during the “Gearing Up for the Race” chapter when you’re exploring the Dust Bowl. Here’s the tricky part:
- You gotta find a specific tunnel in this area. Honestly, it’s easy to miss! If you’re like me and get turned around easily, look up a quick map guide – it’ll save you some frustration.
- Head down a long ladder inside the tunnel. Talk to the gatekeeper guy at the bottom, pick your team leader (for now, it’ll just be Cloud), and get ready to rumble!

Beast Battleground Explained
This challenge throws you into a three-round gauntlet. Let’s explain each round and offer survival tips:
Round 1
- Foes: Two Ignilisks and a Grasslands Wolf.
- Strategy: This is your easiest fight. Focus on dodging the wolf’s attacks while dishing out damage to all three enemies. Standard attacks and some well-timed abilities should do the trick!
- Reward: Exquisite Beast Hide (Perfect for selling or crafting!)
Round 2 – Portent of Ruin
- Foe: Bagnadrana, the six-legged dragon.
- Strategy: This is where it gets serious. Focus on powerful attacks and abilities, as Bagnadrana can take a beating. Prioritize dodging its attacks—they HURT!
- Reward: Hi-Ether (Restore those precious Magic Points!)
Round 3 – Unknown Error
- Foe: Test 0, the hyperactive canine.
- Strategy: Buckle up, this is the toughest round. Test 0 dashes around like crazy and its attacks pack a punch. Time your dodges carefully and retaliate with your strongest abilities when it gets tired.
- Reward: Sylkis Greens (Great for boosting your party’s power!)
Until you rescue your buddies later on, you’re stuck with Cloud. Luckily, his mix of melee and magic is pretty versatile. Once you have a full team, consider Yuffie for her agility or Red XIII for his defensive prowess. Blocking reduces damage AND builds up your ATB gauge for counterattacks and abilities. Use it wisely!
These aren’t your typical critters. Enemies in the Beast Battleground Challenge have some nasty tricks and may inflict annoying status effects. Be ready to adapt!
Final Words
Beast Battleground Challenge is tough, but oh-so-satisfying to beat. It’s like, “HECK YEAH, I’m a monster-slaying legend!” Those rewards aren’t bad either. So, go forth and conquer, fellow FF7 warrior!
