Despite materia being extremely important in Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade, there are several materia that are easy to miss, such as the one behind the fan in Reactor 5 during the sixth chapter of the game.
Tifa points out this materia to Cloud when the player first sees it behind the spinning blades, but there is no way to access it at that point. The red materia holds one of Final Fantasy 7 Remake's more useful summons, however, so it is well worth taking the time to get.
Updated on January 17, 2026, by Greysun Morales: With Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade hitting Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X/S, we've updated this Chapter 6 red materia guide with screenshots and a video to help struggling players.
8 Best Final Lines In Final Fantasy Games
The Final Fantasy games sure know how to end off their stories with one final impactful line, with these being among the most effective.
How to Get the Materia Behind the Fan in Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade
Stop the Fans in Chapter 6
To start off, simply play through the chapter normally until all the sunlamps are deactivated. At this point, the player will return to the area close to the fan, but rather than continuing on the level as normal and riding the huge Cargo platform towards the south, you should instead take the gondola west across to a ladder.
If Barret begins to sing a song about going on an adventure to find some treasure, it is a clear sign that you're going the right way. Climb the ladder, being sure not to miss the Electric de Chocobo music disc in the vending machine, and press the nearby terminal whenever ready.
After pressing the terminal, the fan will stop, and a door will open up next to the vending machine. The player must enter this room, defeat all the enemies inside, and reach the other end of the room to press another terminal within a minute.
This can be attempted as many times as needed, so it is not an issue if the player fails the first time.
After completing this challenge, the door will open, and the fans will remain motionless, allowing the player to grab the Chocobo and Moogle summoning materia and granting them the Cleanup Crew trophy/achievement.
This summon's Chocobo Kick and Moogle Blast attacks are capable of dealing some heavy area of effect damage from both close range and long range, respectively, making them a valuable summon to have at Cloud's side. On top of that, when the summon timer runs out, a herd of Chocobo will appear and trample opponents.
