Following a firmware update for the Switch 2 and Switch<\/a> in November, Nintendo has now rolled out a December update (and what could potentially be the final system update of the year).<\/p>\n

According to the official Nintendo support page, this latest update includes some general system stability improvements. If we hear about anything going on behind the scenes here, such as compatibility updates for existing Switch titles<\/a>, we’ll be sure to let you know.<\/p>\n

Once again, this same update has been rolled out for the original Switch as well. The same patch notes<\/a> for the original system have also been shared on the support page. If you’re not prompted to update, you can manually perform this update by navigating to the System Settings from the HOME Menu, selecting System Update, and the update will begin.<\/p>\n

The Switch 2 has now been available for six months. During this time, Nintendo has released nine firmware updates for the system (and almost every single update has contained a note about stability improvements). It’s also updated Switch game compatibility and even released game upgrades for select titles.<\/p>\n

In some other update news, Nintendo has also released a new patch<\/a> for its battle royale racer F-Zero 99<\/a> today. Nintendo Music<\/a> has also received a new album today<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Have you downloaded this update yet? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
