Original report: If you're collecting Final Fantasy VII Rebirth trophies and it's not too late already, you might want to hold off updating the game to version 1.02 via the latest patch.

So, if you've been following the trophy hunting advice laid out in my recent Final Fantasy VII Rebirth review, maybe ease off the trophy hunting until the game gets patched. via Reddit. According to the Reddit post, and seconded by users in the same thread, the bug seems to affect the completion of the G-Bike minigame section of the side quest. Typically, once the player completes one of the minigames in this quest, they'll get a short exchange with the Middle Manager confirming their victory. However, since Final Fantasy VII Rebirth was updated to version 1.02, users are reporting that this confirmation no longer happens after beating the Middle Manager on the G-Bike machine. Frustratingly, this issue is preventing the quest from completing, which is therefore stopping players from earning "My Job Here is Done," which, in turn, is stopping players from claiming Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's platinum trophy. In a follow-up post on PSN Profiles, more FFVII Rebirth players have encountered other workarounds. Some users report the quest working fine so long as the player has already activated it before installing the patch. Another user believes the quest might be working fine for those playing on hard difficulty. That patch does fix Cloud's face though, so it's a tough call.
