Expect shorter load times and less input lag<\/h2>

The wait is finally over for the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night<\/em> performance patch<\/a> on Nintendo Switch.<\/p>

The update, which just went live this afternoon, hopes to address longstanding concerns over input lag, visual clarity, stability, and patience-testing load times. Look for version 1.03 –<\/span> that’s the ticket.<\/p>

<\/iframe><\/p>

In a post on Kickstarter, the development team said that while Bloodstained <\/em>will feel more responsive now, “there are still a few areas that need optimizing that will be included in update 1.04.” Similarly, while load times have been shortened by “up to 70%” with today’s update, some areas need more attention. “We will keep working to improve this on a room-by-room basis,” the team said.<\/p>

In other Bloodstained <\/em>news, it’s slow-going for Zangetsu (who will become a playable character) and Xbox One fans waiting for update 1.04 and IGA’s Back Pack DLC –<\/span> the timing is still being worked out.<\/p>

“We are very close to delivering [Zangetsu] to everyone, so please wait patiently until then,” IGA said.<\/p>

505 Games also provided an update on the situation in Japan. “Unfortunately, due to some technical issues, Bloodstained<\/em> was delayed from its originally planned release date on the digital PlayStation 4 storefront, but should be live as of today, Oct. 31, 2019,” the publisher explained. “Japanese PlayStation 4 physical copies are arriving in our warehouse now, and distribution to backers should begin Friday. Digital copies are expected to arrive and be distributed to backers early next week.”<\/p>

It hasn’t been an easy road for Bloodstained<\/em>, and there’s still work to do, but gosh, what a game<\/a>. As long as these updates keep coming, I’m bound to double-dip with the Switch edition eventually.<\/p>
