Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night Update 1.02 Now Live On Switch, Includes Bug Fixes, Balance Tweaks

505 Games has released the second update for Bloodstained: Ritual of The Night on the Nintendo Switch.

Before getting your hopes up, this isn’t the performance patch which was previously promised for Switch players. It’s a fairly small update which includes some bug fixes, balance tweaks on weapons, weapon techniques, and shards.

On a separate developer update, 505 Games has detailed their new plans for the performance patch, which is still in development and will further be delayed.

Full Update 1.02 patch notes rundown below:

Hey, everyone.

Our previously announced balance update is coming soon to all platforms. We are sharing the Update Notes here so they are easy to find.
