Quick Patch Rundown
Heads up, nightmarish explorers: an October update for Little Nightmares III landed on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on 31 October 2025. Supermassive Games and Bandai Namco pushed a fix-up aimed at smoothing out a few annoyances and making the game feel nicer to play — especially in co-op.
Gameplay Improvements
The update polishes how the AI buddy behaves and moves, so your creepy companion acts less like a possessed scarecrow and more like an actual teammate. Interactions with the world have also been tightened up, which means fewer frustrating moments when the game decides not to cooperate with your intentions.
Online & Synchronization
Multiplayer got some love too: host and client synchronization has been improved to reduce hiccups and make shared sessions feel smoother. If you’ve been seeing odd desyncs during co-op, this patch aims to calm those gremlins down.
Visual Tweaks
Graphics adjustments were included to boost readability. Post-processing updates should help scenes look less murky and make important details pop a bit more — handy when you’re squinting in the dark trying to avoid being dinner.
UI and UX Fixes
Menus and localization have been tidied up, and issues with vibration and controller behavior have been addressed. In short: fewer menu mysteries and fewer times your controller decides to misbehave at a crucial moment.
Should You Download It?
Yes — unless you enjoy glitches and spooky frustration. The patch aims to improve stability and polish, so grabbing it will generally make for a smoother Spiral experience.
Final Notes
Supermassive and Bandai Namco say they’re still listening to feedback, so expect more refinements down the line. For now, update the game, grab a friend (or an agreeable AI), and dive back into the weird and wonderful world of Little Nightmares III.
