Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Patch Finally Fixes Bugged Platinum Trophy [IGN]

As reported by GamesRadar, the patch notes for version 1.030 have so far only been released in Japanese but make clear Square Enix has addressed the trophy issue, which arrived via a bugged side quest called Can’t Stop Won’t Stop.

The publisher had already announced a fix for the bug was coming in the next patch after fans reported the issue upon the release of update 1.02. The quest requires players beat a high score in the G-Bike minigame, but wouldn’t trigger the quest progressing cutscene upon doing so, leaving the “complete all quests and side quests” trophy, and thus the coveted Platinum, unobtainable.

Players will need to beat the high score again to progress the quest following the installation of patch 1.030, but once they do so the quest will progress as intended. The full patch notes are available below.
