The only way I was able to get a build validated was by.
Unchecking Game Center from my Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles -> App ID Configuration
Regenerate Provisioning Profiles
Re-archive & Upload
This is less than ideal but it might satisfy a time-sensitive situation ...
Weirdly enough, my leaderboard/achievement features are still working on my Test Flight build.
