Update: Sloclap has revealed what got changed in today’s patch!
A new patch is out on PS4/5, EGS & Switch
These hotfixes aim to improve background processes and fix a few bugs.
The Switch patch likely won't bring better performances, but we are still working to make the game as smooth as possible. Please bear with us while we sort it out.

Sloclap hasn’t acknowledged today’s patch just yet other than teasing Title Update 4:
Let's see… how many days until Title Update 4 again?
…Okay, nice, I still have some time to post a few more polaroids.

What’s also in the cards is voiceover support for Cantonese, which the studio is rolling out to give thanks to what inspired them before.
Hong Kong Kung-fu movies from the 70s & 80s have inspired Sifu, and no doubt a few keen eyes have spotted the numerous references in the game. The Cantonese voiceover is a way to celebrate these movies and make Sifu a more immersive experience for players who are fond of them! pic.twitter.com/RxoHtrQglP
