Square Enix has confirmed a glitch in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth blocking players from unlocking the Platinum Trophy will be addressed in the RPG's next update. Currently, a side quest called Can't Stop Won't Stop isn't registering high scores in the G-Bike arcade minigame, which is required to unlock the Platinum Trophy and progress other missions near to the end of the game. The publisher hasn't said when the PS5 patch will arrive, but presumably, it'll be available soon.
«We’re aware of an issue stopping progress in the “Can’t Stop Won’t Stop” sidequest,» the Final Fantasy VII Twitter page wrote. «This is scheduled to be fixed in the next patch. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.»
The glitch became part of the game following its previous update, and while there is a workaround for physical owners of the game (you have to delete and reinstall to the 1.0 version), digital players had no chance of unlocking the Platinum Trophy. The next PS5 patch will get things sorted, Square Enix states.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he can be found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.
Good good.
I have only one other thing left that I can do before having to use chapter select again, which would reset my progress on this quest.
Hopefully this doesn't take too long.
Perfect timing. I'm almost at Chapter 11. I've been hoping this would be fixed before I get much further.
Well there goes my excuse of why I can't platinum Rebirth. Either I gotta git gud or figure out another excuse.
Hmm, glad I didn’t start it at release now
