Pokémon Legends: Arceus 1.0.2 has landed, the second post-launch polish to Game Freak’s freshly-launched open-world catch-em-all action RPG. You’ll find the complete list of all the changes, improvements, and fixes bundled into this latest Pokémon Legends: Arceus update right here on this page.
Light in both size and reach, Pokémon Legends: Arceus 1.0.2 targets four fixes with little else besides. The patch fixes an offline freeze issue when picking up a lost satchel, a bug that made Cherrim too challenging to catch, a mission event trigger block, and, finally, a problem where players were catching duplicates of the same Pokémon, preventing them from completing the Pokedex.
