The Nintendo Switch version of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 came out earlier this month, but a game-breaking bug is making progression nigh-impossible.
On Tuesday, Twitter user Daniel Moore told developer Aspyr that following the Basilisk Crash cutscene, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 on Switch cashes. This bug allegedly makes it so finishing the story is pretty unlikely. Aspyr acknowledged the issue on its support page but didn’t offer any sort of date for a patch. However, the team is “working on delivering the patch as soon as possible.” Another user claimed that after re-playing the section 14 times, they could finally progress.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 is infamous for being buggy, but you would hope that a modern re-release would iron something this egregious out. The game is almost 20 years old by now if you can believe that.
Are you guys aware there is no way to complete this game? I've been stuck on the onderon basilisk crash for a week now. Whats the eta on a patch?

All fans can hope for is that Aspyr fixes Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 on Switch soon. Hopefully, well before the cut-content DLC drops later this year.
Aspyr is also working on the next-gen remake of the first Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic alongside Saber Interactive. Who knows when we’ll see that, though, since it was only announced last year via a CGI trailer.
