Nintendo has announce<\/a>d that it is releasing two new updates for Nintendo Switch Sports<\/a> this week that will hopefully restore online functionality and fix a bug that was introduced into the game via version 1.2.1 (via VGC<\/a>).<\/p>\n

After last week’s update, many players reported that the game would crash while loading matches \u2014 both online and offline \u2014 so Nintendo retracted the patch and pulled Switch Sports servers offline<\/a> for the weekend. But today, the company has shared details of a two-part update that looks to fix the issue and restore online connectivity for budding Switch Sports players.<\/p>\n

The first of the updates, version 1.2.2, drops on 18th October and it looks to restore online play. Version 1.2.3 will release on 20th October and will restore any save data back-ups you might have for the game. Nintendo has advised that if you’re still struggling to get online after ver. 1.2.2, then wait until 1.2.3 is live and downloaded.<\/p>\n
