Snow in F-Zero 99
F-Zero 99 is one of the highlights of 2023 for the Switch Online members and Nintendo already confirmed that there will be no more new tracks. However, the company launched a new content update today. It comes with a “limited-time” Frozen Knight League event, content addition, and some fixes as well.
Here are the full patch notes:
New Additions
- Added Frozen Knight League, a limited-time Knight League where snow falls. All courses that are regularly included in the Knight League (MUTE CITY I, BIG BLUE, SAND OCEAN, DEATH WIND I, and SILENCE) will be blanketed in snow.
- The Frozen Knight League event will be held for a limited time only. You can see how much time is remaining in the event by pressing the R Button on the main menu.
- Regular Knight League tracks and Knight League Grand Prix cannot be played during the Frozen Knight League event. Except for training and practice modes).
- Added Boost colors to be used for machine customization as well as backdrops, badges, and borders to be used for Pilot Card customization. These can be unlocked when certain conditions are met.
- The customization items added for this update can only be obtained during the Frozen Knight League event.
- You can check specified conditions and progress for each item by pressing the R Button on the main menu.
- You can perform customization by selecting WORKSHOP on the main menu, and then selecting MACHINES and PILOT CARDS.
Other Fixes
- Fixed an issue that was occurring even after application of the Ver. 1.0.2 update where a specific badge cannot be obtained even though conditions are met. That saved data will be fixed and the badge can now be obtained.
- Fixed issues to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.
