Nintendo has announced it will be patching a major game-breaking bug in Metroid Dread that has been identified.
The bug can prevent progression if certain conditions occur, making the game crash.
Near the end of the game, if the player destroys a door while a map marker for that specific door is displayed on the map, the game will forcibly close and the following message will appear: “The software was closed because an error occurred.”
The patch will be out by the end of the month
