1.0.0[edit]

1.0.0[edit]

The base game was released worldwide on December 7th, 2018 at midnight local time.

Due to the presence of a day 1 patch, the only way to play this version digitally is to have pre-ordered and pre-loaded the game, then have disabled automatic updates, then have rejected the incoming day 1 patch update at the time of unlocking the pre-load.

Accessing this version today requires a physical cart and a Switch that has never downloaded anyUltimate updates since the last time it was formatted. (Therefore, accessing it on a Switch that has downloaded anyUltimate update requires formatting the console, losing save data for any other games that have not been backed up through Nintendo Switch Online.) However, newer cartridges may have updates pre-installed—with some having versions up to version2.0.1—which instead makes it possible to downgrade to that pre-installed version but not to 1.0.0 or any other version.
