Template:Images Extra Missions are a mode of gameplay in Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-. They are unlocked once the main game is completed on any difficulty. Unlike the main story Missions, these are entirely optional and do not connect to the central plot of Dirge of Cerberus. In these missions, the players control either Vincent Valentine or Cait Sith in digital combat simulations created by Shalua Rui. These combat simulations are designed as training modes for members of the WRO. By completing these missions, more Extra Missions are unlocked for the player's enjoyment. Within these Extra Missions, as in the main game, the player can find Capsules which unlock secret materials such as artwork, music, and other extras. By finding Capsules in certain missions, the player can unlock secret missions.
Each one of the Extra Missions take place in their own unique locations. There are various unique objectives ranging from defeating certain enemies, locating goal points, or simply survive. Some Missions have time limits, others do not. The player gets a set amount of items and ammo before each mission. Missions are lost by either dying or running out of time. In all, there are forty-six Extra Missions for the player to go through, four of which are secret missions.
