Sonic Origins on Switch has been updated to version 1.4.0

Sonic Origins may have been released less than 2 months ago, but it is an understatement to say that the state of the game has been an issue. Unfortunately, there has been a bunch of bugs that the game has had. A patch for the game was confirmed to be in the works last month, so it wasn’t going to be long before the bugs were addressed.

Well, SEGA has been spending the past few days gradually rolling out the update. It came out on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 the other day, followed by the PC version that night. It was only a matter of time, but SEGA has released an update for the Nintendo Switch version of Sonic Origins, bringing the compilation to version 1.4.0. It isn’t surprising, but the update’s only purpose is to fix bugs. You can see the patch notes down below.

• Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles: Added a function to Sound Test.
• Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Fixed a bug where Tails would not return from outside the screen and a sound effect would continually play.

• Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Fixed a bug that caused the sound effect for collecting Rings to be interrupted when collecting them in quick succession.
• Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles: Adjusted Competition Mode on the Nintendo Switch so that it can be played without registering two Joy-Cons / Pro controllers. *Made registration for two Joy-Cons / Pro controllers in Time Attack unnecessary, and made it possible to cancel controller registration in other modes.
