Pico Park Developer Urges Switch 2 Users to Hold Off on Purchase
TECOPARK has issued a public statement on October 13 advising Nintendo Switch 2 owners to delay purchasing Pico Park due to a critical software issue. The studio confirmed that players are encountering game-breaking bugs, specifically becoming stuck on blank screens during World 1-2, which prevents any further progression.
Initially suspecting network environment problems, the developer changed its stance after receiving numerous reports indicating the fault lies with the platform itself. TECOPARK is now investigating potential causes, including recent system updates from Nintendo, and is considering temporarily suspending the game's distribution on the Nintendo eShop while a fix is developed.
