A few days ago, Ubisoft released Immortal Fenyx Rising’s Update 1.1.0 across all platforms, bringing some much-needed fixes and quality of life updates. Additionally, the update fixes localization and stability. Ubisoft reiterated that the bugs players encountered in some activities and issues with the game’s photo mode were also addressed in the patch. However, the most exciting part of the update is the inclusion of support for Immortal Fenyx Rising’s first DLC expansion called A New God.

Another 2020 game currently available on Nintendo’s New Year Sale is Ori and the Will of the Wisps, which is currently available for $25.49 from its current price of $29.99. Although the game’s port to the Switch is considered a success, developer Moon Studios revealed that it took intense effort to bring Ori and the Will of the Wisps to Nintendo’s hybrid console. According to the developer, the standard version of the game runs at 60 FPS, and this was also the studio’s goal for the Switch version. However, after the game’s initial port to the Switch, it only ran at just 24 FPS, even with compromised assets. Luckily for fans, Moon Studios was able to hit 60 FPS on the Switch after three and a half months of optimization.
