Latest Civilization VI Patch For Switch Fixes Crashing Bug

A few weeks ago, we reported on a bug with the Switch version of Civilization VI which causes the game to crash just as players are about to achieve victory.

Since then, the developers have put out a patch that appears to have resolved the issue for the most part. As of Version 1.2.2.0, all new games will be able to proceed and be won without further issues. However, saved games from may still face some issues with Cultural Victories, as detailed by one user on the Civilization subreddit:

Fellow Nintendo Switch players— there is a new patch today and it appears to have fixed the major “crash on victory” problem. Since I noticed the problem I’ve been hording save files one turn until victory, and with the new patch I’ve been loading them up one by one and three so far have successfully finished the game.

Edit #1: Domination, Religious, Science victories all working normally now with the saves I had waiting a turn before victory. Cultural victories, however, are not. Had cultural victories ready for Kongo, Egypt, and Persia, but none of them work. Games continue as normal, despite having more than enough foreign tourists for victories to trigger. Can’t tell if it’s only on previous saves or if cultural victories won’t work for new games either. Will find out soon, I guess, since cultural is my favorite victory method.

Edit #2: Happy to report that I just finished a new quick game where I got a cultural victory with China with no issues, so it appears to just effect cultural victories of old saves! Hooray!
