Yo team โ if you're running Indiana Jones on Switch 2 and haven't grabbed Update 8 Hotfix 1 yet (dropped June 12), get it now! There are two specific crashes on the Switch 2 version that this patches out, which is huge for a new port. But they didn't stop there either โ across ALL platforms, they overhauled the ragdoll system so enemies actually stay put when you pick them up instead of spinning like tops or popping after being knocked down, and they finally killed that annoying stutter whenever a level first loads.
And honestly, this hotfix proves my point about live service attitude: Bethesda and MachineGames are listening to feedback immediately. The game was already solid โ Nintendo Life called it "a globe-trotting adventure with crunchy melee" and praised Troy Baker's performance as Indy โ so the extra polish just makes it better. It's a great example of how a port that takes a few early hits can be refined into something genuinely special through quick hotfixes. The game is worth playing, but if you haven't updated since launch, do it now to fix those stability issues!
