Square Enix are issuing a day one patch for the cloud version of the Kingdom Hearts games after complaints that the games have an error preventing start up.
As announced by the official Kingdom Hearts Twitter account, a day one patch has been released addressing issues with both the demo and full versions of the Kingdom Hearts games launching on Nintendo Switch via the cloud. Some players ran into the issue that when opening the game an error occurs which only says "The software was closed because an error occurred." Restarting the console or closing and opening the game didn't seem to fix the error for these players.
Today we've also launched a day 1 patch. This will fix various bugs which occur whilst playing either the full or demo versions of each Kingdom Hearts game on Nintendo Switch. #KH20thFebruary 10, 2022
