PICO PARK creators ask Switch 2 owners not to buy the game due to a critical bug

The creators of the co-op puzzle game PICO PARK are asking Switch 2 owners to temporarily refrain from buying the game due to a critical bug.

The developers of the popular co-op platformer PICO PARK have reached out to owners of the next-generation console with an unusual request: to temporarily refrain from purchasing and launching the game on Switch 2.

Critical bug on Switch 2

The original PICO PARK was released on Nintendo Switch back in 2019, and the project does not have a native version for Switch 2. However, running the game via backward compatibility encounters a serious issue. Studio TECOPARK reported numerous player complaints: when playing online on Switch 2 on level WORLD 1-2, the screen turns completely white, making further progress impossible.

Seeking a fix and possible delisting

Initially, the creators believed the issue was caused by the network connection of individual users, but the scale of the complaints confirmed a technical glitch on the game's side on the new system.

  • The development team is already investigating and working on a patch;
  • Players are asked not to buy the game specifically for Switch 2 until the issue is resolved;
  • The developers do not rule out temporarily suspending sales of the game in the eShop until the bug is fixed.
