Nintendo released the latest major update for ARMS this past week. Version 4.0.0 added in support for the brand new fighter Misango.

Soon after that update premiered, Nintendo sent out another patch. The latest update for ARMS is now version 4.0.1.

As for what it does, that’s somewhat of a mystery at the moment. Nintendo hasn’t posted any patch notes anywhere – be it its Japanese website or North American support page. We can at least guess that it implements some fixes from 4.0.0. If we do get an official notice from Nintendo about the update, we’ll let you know.

System: Switch
Release date: November 17, 2017
Developer: Two Tribes
Publisher: Two Tribes

In RIVE, you control a spider-mech that is piloted by a loud mouthed, raunchy captain as he tries to escape a space warehouse that constantly pours threat after threat his way. As far as story- that’s as much as you’re going to get, aside from awkward one-liners and poor pop culture references. The story never grows into much more than that, but that’s completely fine. A game like RIVE doesn’t need a huge encompassing tale to keep you invested, just the quick paced action of the 7ish hour campaign will keep you invested enough.
