Fixes to Multiplayer
- Fixed an issue where the game would run slower than expected during battles compared to Ver. 3.1.1 or earlier.
- Took measures to fix an issue in Clam Blitz mode where, if a player passed a clam or power clam to an ally standing in front of the goal, that clam or power clam would remain in the ally’s possession even if it was counted as going into the goal.
- Fixed an issue in Clam Blitz mode that sometimes caused a clam to not travel according to the predicted trajectory line shown by pressing the button to throw it.
- Fixed an issue in Anarchy Battle (Open) that always caused a communication error to occur when joining a group with friends, depending on the status of the group’s members.
Fixes to Salmon Run

Ver. 4.0.1 (Released June 1, 2023)
Fixes to Player Controls

- Fixed an issue when opening or closing brellas where the targeting reticle did not always reflect the change.
Note: Battle replays will still be compatible with Ver. 4.0.0 but will not be compatible with Ver. 3.1.1 or earlier.
