Nope, and it very likely never will. Shame that I'll never buy this one because of how absolutely terrible it runs (check out some YouTube performance breakdowns), because I really enjoyed the other one.

I am still working on 100%'ing this game. strangely enough its framier in docked mode. the frame rate is annoying but i dont think its any worse than breath of the wild. games awesome, even if its a little framey a small part of the time. The real beef is with all musou games and how they handle the camera when its up on a wall. It's a steal at this price. great game

I believe there's still a demo on the eshop if you want to try out prior to purchasing. As others have mentioned, the frame rate drops can be annoying with mass enemies on the screen. If you're a die hard BOTW fan this entry is worth it just for the lore, especially at $30

Did they ever fix the performance issues with this game? I never got it since I kept seeing people complain about constant frame drops.

Same here. I was looking forward to buying this game after spending all of Winter playing BOTW for the first time as I'm a late Switch owner and loved every minute of BOTW. I guess I'll save money by avoiding this game and putting it towards the Deluxe Edition of BOTW 2

Thanks for the information about the terrible frame rates. I didn't even know it had an issue but I'll definitely be skipping this one now. Sucks that places like IGN are giving this a 9/10 with no mention that it runs like garbage.

Y'all can hate on this game, but at least listen to the song The Champion Revali. You won't be disappointed
