Moonglow Bay får en rejäl uppdatering

Moonglow Bay utannonserades för ett år sedan och fick mycket uppmärksamhet tack vare den tjusiga grafiken och det Animal Crossing-liknande upplägget med en fiskeby som tycktes bjuda på ett mysterium. Även om vi uppskattade äventyret när det lanserades i oktober, kan vi inte förneka att det hade ett par tekniska problem.

I ett långt inlägg på den officiella hemsidan säger teamet att de "completely acknowledge communication hasn't been good enough" och förklarar varför en ordentlig lösning tagit så lång tid. Men nu har uppdateringen släppts och det är en stor uppdatering som fixar en uppsjö av saker, kolla in allt längre ner.
