Complete walkthrough for the 'Can't Stop Won't Stop' side quest in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. Learn how to beat the Middle Manager in Chocobo Race, Galactic Saviors, and Musclehead Colosseum.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start the Quest: Access 'Can't Stop Won't Stop' at the entrance to the Gold Saucer in Chapter 12, after finishing all other side quests. The Middle Manager will be found dancing with others. If he's not there, play Gold Saucer minigames to trigger his appearance.
  2. 2
    Beat the Middle Manager's Scores: You need to achieve top scores in several minigames to earn the 'Ultimate Party Animal' title. The first four challenges can be tackled in any order: Chocobo Square, Speed Square, Battle Square, and G-Bike at Wonderment Square. A fifth, final challenge awaits after these.
  3. 3
    Chocobo Race (Chocobo Square):
    1. The track features sharp turns requiring slowing down or drifting.
  4. 4
    Navigate through Cactuar Gates and avoid spinning discs in water sections.
  5. 5
    Use air vents to float over water sections with obstacles.
  6. 6
    The Middle Manager is an easy opponent; focus on clean racing to win.
  • Galactic Saviors (Speed Square):
    1. Beat the UPA's high score of 50,000 points on the Expert Course.
    2. Destroy all enemy ships for bonus points. Use barrel rolls sparingly as they deplete your special attack, saving it for proton bombs.
    3. After the asteroid field, quickly defeat the two dragons.
    4. Destroy the cannons on the large boss ship (500 points each).
    5. Target the laser cannons first, then the main thrusters to finish the ship.
  • Musclehead Colosseum (Battle Square):
    1. This is a multi-stage challenge; dying sends you back to Round 1.
    2. Preparation: Craft Safety Bits for all characters to counter Tonberries' instant death abilities. Bring Revival Materia and consider Assess Materia if needed.
    3. Round 1 - Gigantuar and Gargantuar:
      1. These enemies are fast and hard to hit.
      2. They become pressured only during 'Needle Rain'.
      3. Avoid their devastating numbered Needle attacks, which can cause instant KO.
      4. Focus on one enemy at a time, stagger them, and use all your abilities.
    4. Round 2 - Tonberries:
      1. You face 10 Tonberries.
      2. Equip Safety Bits or Karmic Cowls to negate their instant death abilities.
    • Tips
    • Equip Safety Bits or Karmic Cowls to protect against instant death attacks, especially in the Musclehead Colosseum.
    • Bring Revival Materia for the Musclehead Colosseum.
    • Assess Materia can be useful for learning enemy weaknesses, but prioritize combat-ready Materia if needed.
    • Mastering the barrel roll in Galactic Saviors is key for scoring, but conserve your special attack.
    • Practice the Gold Saucer minigames beforehand to improve your chances.
