Nintendo's notes for the 167MB patch simply read: "Adjustments have been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience." However, players on Twitter (including our own Zelda reviewer ), Reddit NeoGAF , and YouTube have all reported improved performance since installing the update.Anecdotally, trouble spots - particularly areas with a lot of long grass - do seem to have received a significant boost, although certain areas with particular problems (which I won't reveal for fear of spoilers) still do suffer from consistent dips.Framerate problems were a key concern in our otherwise sparkling Breath of the Wild review , and it has since become apparent that the game runs worse in the Switch's docked mode than when used as a handheld.IGN has contacted Nintendo for comment.
