  • Patch notes:
FUNCTIONALITY
NINTENDO SWITCH
  • After the last patch, some users reported that catapults previously unlocked had stopped appearing in the world although the orb was placed on them.
  • After the last patch, some users reported that outfits and other collectables previously unlocked were not displayed in the inventory.
BOTH PLATFORMS
  • Signs threw an error every time they were read by the user. This was related to a bug that provoked some tutorials to display repeatedly instead of just once.
PERFORMANCE

NEW FEATURES
NINTENDO SWITCH

 

  • Improved lighting effects.
  • Improved framerate stability.
