  • Fixed an issue where players were becoming trapped within the stage terrain.
  • Fixed an issue where, at the end of battle, the amount of Grizzco Points earned would be shown as smaller than the amount actually added to save data, which caused cases where the player could not collect rewards.
  • Fixed an issue where the messages at the beginning of Wave 3 could change based on whether or not a King Salmonid would appear.

Fixed an issue where, after clearing the final stage, a communication error would occur in the middle of a certain scene and return the player to the square.

The post-clear cutscenes can be viewed by clearing the final stage again. In cases where this error occurred, the final stage is treated as cleared, and the stage can be skipped from the pause menu when reattempting.
