Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Two Switch games that released this week will soon be receiving updates.
First up, Klei has confirmed that a patch for Don’t Starve: Nintendo Switch Edition has already been submitted to Nintendo. It’ll fix issues like being unable to see rabbit holes. Additional languages will also be supported in the future.
Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs is also getting an update imminently, if it isn’t live already. Version 1.01 fixes an issue in which some minor GUI elements were missing. Playability isn’t impacted, “but definitely makes Regalia look less pleasant” than initially planned.

The big takeaways from the post are a couple of interesting teases. Playtonic says the team has been “far too busy working on covert goodness”. We’ll soon be hearing about “extra content for Yooka-Laylee” as well as “other stuff.”
What could “other stuff” be? A new game? Something else? Hopefully we’ll have more news to share soon.
