You may recall that, a week ago, Nintendo had confirmed that they would be releasing a new update for Splatoon 3 in the coming week. The main reason for this was to fix a nasty bug involving certain weapon types not working.
Well, even though The Game Awards have just begun, Nintendo has just released the update moments ago. Once you update, Splatoon 3 should be at version 2.0.1. As promised, the update fixes the bug that Nintendo acknowledged last week. The patch notes can be seen down below.
Changes to Player Controls
- Fixed an issue that caused ink levels to immediately decrease when using a roller or brush close to the ground.
Other Fixes
- Fixed an issue that caused the game to force quit when the Equip menu is opened.
- Fixed an issue that caused the game to force quit during Photo Mode in recon if the player tried to close Photo Mode after using an amiibo.
- Fixed an issue that allowed temporary aliases set in Private Battles to be used in other modes.
