Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 has a save data-corrupting bug
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 recently released on Switch to pretty positive reception. Unfortunately, a bug capable of corrupting save data has been found in the game.
The bug does seem relatively uncommon at least. For it to trigger, you’d need to delete a save file from the file select screen, then change your settings or language options from the title screen. Then, starting a new game in that deleted slot and either saving manually or auto-saving will corrupt that save slot.
Thankfully, Inti Creates is aware of this issue and is working to resolve it. Here is a statement from them detailing the issue and how to avoid it:
