Nintendo’s official rundown is as follows:

  • The game now supports the Polish language.
    • Note: You can change your selected language using the “Language” setting in the “System” menu of “System Settings.”

  • Fixed an issue where the displayed rating would sometimes be incorrect when joining “Everyone” in “Online Play” while in a room.
