You can find the list of known issues below.
Nintendo Switch Known Issues
- Low FPS when the game is launched while docked. This can be fixed by undocking and redocking or booting the game in handheld
- In “Escape from the Mines” chase, if you die at a trap during the chase the main quest resets. To avoid the issue, reload the game and avoid dying to traps. Note: if you get the issue, you can continue playing as normal, but your quest display will be outdated
- During the Winter Golem boss fight, if you stop moving after cutting the rope, the game soft locks. To avoid the issue, reload the game and continue running after the Winter Golem after cutting the rope
- In rare instances, using fast travel to exit a temple after retrieving the boss key prevents completion of some temples
- In rare instances, death causes Ary to become invisible, requiring a reload of the game
- Ice golems in Winter Temple may spawn invisible. They are visible on reload, but progress is still possible by defeating them while invisible
- English strings displayed for some NPC chatter instead of translated strings if playing in other languages
- World / terrain disappears in several areas at specific player viewpoints
- Collision is missing from some objects like barrels in Ostara City
- Some NPC quest indicators do not disappear after talking to the NPC in some cases.
