Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth finally fixes its Platinum Trophy bug with latest patch

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth players should now have no trouble trying to obtain the game’s Platinum Trophy, as Square Enix has finally resolved the bug affecting completion.

Last week, Square Enix reassured fans that it would implement a fix in its role-playing game via a scheduled update after fans reported that they couldn’t complete the ‘Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop’ sidequest located in the Gold Saucer. 

Some who were aiming to 100% the game by obtaining all PlayStation 5 trophies were unable to do so due to the bug, but thankfully a patch has been rolled out, resolving the issue while also adding new improvements to functionality and stability (via GamesRadar).

Patch 1.030 is available now to download and it looks like the issue surrounding the ‘Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop’ quest stems from a sub-quest called ‘Challenge from a Player’ that occurs in Chapter 12, where the quest would prevent the player’s progress even if the clear conditions for the Gold Saucer’s G-Bike minigame were met.

Although the bug is now fixed, Square Enix notes that you’ll need to “meet the G Bike clear conditions again after the update” once more, but that previous progress in the quest hasn’t been reset.

Elsewhere, new courses should now be released correctly in the Battle Simulator, and the issue where the trophy ‘Sabotender Senbon Knocker’ could not be obtained even if the conditions were met, has also been fixed. You can read the full patch notes below.
