<p>When <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/bloodstained_ritual_of_the_night">Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night</a></strong> arrived on the Switch a week after initial release, Nintendo players quickly established something wasn’t right.</p>
<p>Digital Foundry had a <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/07/video_digital_foundry_explores_bloodstained_ritual_of_the_nights_disappointing_switch_version">closer inspection</a> of this version of the game and found the performance and visuals had taken a tremendous hit and own review here on <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/nintendo-switch/bloodstained_ritual_of_the_night">Nintendo Life</a> said these same issues detracted from what was a fantastic game on other platforms.</p>
<p>So, how are the developers planning to resolve these issues plaguing the Switch release? Now that Koji Igarashi and his team have released the “Iga’s Back Pack” they are focused on releasing the July update. 505 Games Global Brand Manager Roberto Piraino has now posted the following development update on the game’s Kickstarter page:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Hello everyone, I’m happy to report that this week we submitted a patch for Switch, once it’s approved we’ll update the game asap. The following changes are already locked in, and we’re working to confirm even more changes/improvements etc. for this patch, hopefully by next week</p>
