After years of back-and-fourth, a judge ordered that the short-lived reality series' production company, Bunim/Murray, hand over the content, revealed.
The outlet claimed the scenes - which were filmed in March 2017 - showed Chyna with her then-fiancé, Rob Kardashian “in love.”
In the footage, the couple - who broke up shortly after - were “expressing love” to each other as Chyna underwent a medical procedure.
Additional unused footage from Keeping Up With The Kardashians also taken in 2017 were also asked to be handed over.
The KUWTK clips show Chyna and Rob, 33, working on their relationship and co-parenting their daughter, Dream.
In addition to the footage, Chyna also alleged in the lawsuit that Kris and Kylie Jenner along with Kim and Khloe Kardashian “defamed” her.
The suit claims Chyna’s “highly lucrative contract” with the E! and parent company, NBCUniversal was shut down due to the family’s alleged involvement.
Court papers show Chyna claims “illegal interference” caused the cancellation Rob & Chyna.
Rob - who recently made a comeback on KUWTK after laying low for years - was said to not be a part of the hearing as it “wasn’t relevant.”
An attorney for Rob told the outlet: “We have not filed an opposition to the court for this request because the footage has no impact on the case.
“However, we have requested Blac Chyna’s OnlyFans footage and she has refused to release that footage to us.”
Bunim/Murray reportedly have 45 days to hand over all of the footage.
Rob & Chyna premiered in September 2016 and ran for one season. It was renewed but later canceled by the network.
Chyna’s attorney said in a statement to in June that NBC executives “never viewed the existing unaired Season 2 footage.”
She claimed this “conclusively proves that Kris Jenner lied when she claimed that Chyna had ‘beat the [expletive] out of Rob’s face’.”
A month earlier, Kylie and Rob sued Chyna for battery after alleging she tried to choke the father of her daughter Dream with a phone cord.

The attorney added that the “executive-level decision-makers at the E! Network and NBCUniversal” – all of whom were white – “completely denied any due process to their black reality TV star regarding the fate of Season 2 of Rob & Chyna.”
In response, the lawyer – Marty Singer – said: “This is a two-year-old lawsuit in which Chyna has changed her defense more times than we can count.
“Sadly, unsurprising to anyone, she has stooped to a new low, changing her defense to try to leverage the emotions and pain of the moment, insulting the pain and suffering of real victims of racial injustice and systemic racism.
