Campaign Mode \/ Challenge Mode<\/p>\n

Battle Mode<\/p>\n

In Online Battle, the online lobby will not disband after the host leaves.

The positions of the goalposts on the left and right sides in the “Use tilt to fly through the goalposts” challenge has been adjusted to make it easier to pass through.<\/p>\n

Bug fixes<\/p>\n

Campaign Mode \/ Challenge Mode<\/p>\n

Fixed a bug where the game would occasionally crash if the player repeatedly selected RESTART while playing Corneria.
\nFixed a bug where, if the player’s ship was shot down at the same time as defeating the boss Bacoon in Aquas, the game would freeze if Bacoon was defeated again after restarting.
\nFixed a bug where, if the player’s ship was shot down at the same time as defeating the boss Gorgon in Area 6, the game would freeze if Gorgan was defeated again after restarting.
\nFixed a bug where, in rare cases, the main body of the boss Goras in Titania would not reappear after its arm submerged in the ground, causing the game to freeze.
\nFixed a bug where, after playing Venom in Challenge Mode, the game would freeze if the player resumed Campaign Mode from where they left off and cleared Venom.
\nFixed a bug where, in rare cases, a sound would not play or would play twice after selecting RESTART during gameplay.
\nFixed a bug in the Zoness challenge \u201cDestroy every Radar Buoy without being spotted\u201d where destroying a Radar Buoy by colliding with it while piloting the Arwing did not result in a failure.<\/p>\n

Battle Mode<\/p>\n

Fixed a bug that would occasionally cause the game to crash when starting an Online Battle match.
\nFixed a bug in Online Battle that would occasionally cause the game to stop progressing normally for the host and remaining participants if the host’s connection was lost.

\nFixed a bug where the durability of the Arwing’s wings would decrease after playing Challenge Mode on expert difficulty and then playing Battle Mode.
