Hey Valley Villagers!

Following the recent release of Pixel Perfect, we’ve been monitoring your feedback and are happy to confirm a hotfix addressing many of the top bugs and issues reported by our community.

As this hotfix is rolling out in separate patches per platform, updates may not go live at the same time. The Switch and Switch 2 versions of the hotfix will take additional time to roll out, and we’ll share an update when they are available.

We truly appreciate everyone who has taken the time to share feedback! Your input is essential in helping us address key issues and identify ways to further enhance your gaming experience.

Important note: Cross-progression will be unavailable on Switch platforms until the Switch version of the hotfix is released. We recommend that Switch players who use multiple platforms keep this limitation in mind during this period. Cross-progression functionality will be restored once the Switch version of the hotfix is available.

Please find the details of the contents of the hotfix below:
