Nintendo releases an update for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on the Nintendo Switch, bringing the game to Version 13.0.5. Multiple outlets report it is the first update for the game since June of the previous year.
The patch is described as addressing an issue related to “invalid data” in online battles. Nintendo Life notes the update alongside other Switch game updates occurring around the same time, and says additional details, if found, are expected to be reported. My Nintendo News similarly frames the update as a bug fix based on the patch notes, emphasizing that it does not include any broader “performance” changes that some players may have been looking for. Across coverage, the focus remains on correcting an online-related problem rather than adding new gameplay features.
