How do you wake up the dead businessmen in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth? If you have been tracking down the Protorelic in the Grasslands region, you know that the thugs are a bit of an annoyance. These guys just won’t let you have the relic and keep getting away. Finally, you have tracked them to their hideout but they won’t stop playing dead.

There are plenty of other tasks for you to complete in the game. For instance, you might still need to fight the Quetzalcoatl in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. If you are determined to get the Protorelic, we have you covered. Here is how to wake up the dead businessmen in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

Dead Businessmen location in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

The dead businessmen can be found to the northeast of Kalm. After getting the key to the hideout, head to the Kalm Air-Raid Shelter point of interest. You can fast travel there to make things easier. From there, head north and follow the path to the old Shinra warehouse on the cliffs.

This is the final Phenomenon Intel location in the Grasslands region. Once there, you will find the four thugs from earlier playing dead in the middle of the Shinra Factory.

How to wake up the businessmen in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

To wake up the “dead businessmen” in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, you need to drop the large yellow crate on them. This can be done by simply pulling the switch to the right of the entrance.

Once this box lands on them, they will wake up and the quest will progress. This is a fairly simple solution to an otherwise annoying process. Too bad you can’t simply skip this like you can skip the Nibelheim chapter earlier in the game.
