Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Players Stuck Due to Annoying Bug

Mar 31, 2024 12:58 PM

Players seeking the elusive platinum trophy in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth have hit a snag due to a persistent bug, impacting the G-Bike arcade simulator trophy. The glitch has arisen post the 1.020 patch update and appears to be affecting only those with digital versions of the game, hindering their progress as scores needed for the trophy can't be properly recorded. There's a workaround for those with physical copies involving a reinstallation of the game without the latest patch, but unfortunately, digital players must await a fix. Although the developers haven't issued an official response, the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth community hopes for a swift resolution to continue their trophy-hunting endeavors effortlessly. Meanwhile, players are advised to hold off on completing the side quest tied to this trophy or to use a previous save if they're looking to achieve platinum status.

What can players do to bypass the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth platinum trophy bug?

Physical copy owners can uninstall the game, disconnect from the internet, reinstall, and use an earlier save to attempt the G-Bike high score. Digital copy owners currently have no workaround and need to wait for an official patch from the developers.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a highly anticipated sequel to the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. As a part of a trilogy that retells the classic FF7 story with modern graphics and gameplay, fans have been eagerly diving into the updates and improvements while enjoying the nostalgia. The original title launched in 1997 on the PlayStation, revolutionizing RPGs with its engaging narrative, memorable characters, and cinematic sequences. The remake and its follow-ups aim to capture that same magic for a new generation. However, issues such as this trophy bug can mar the experience, reminding us that contemporary gaming comes with its own set of challenges. FF7 has a massive fanbase, all eager to explore every aspect of the game, making a platinum trophy a coveted achievement that has unfortunately become just out of reach for those affected by the recent bug.
