Noby Noby Boy v1.1 patch is now available on the PlayStation Network. You can update your version of the game by booting it up and downloading the update. The patch fixes a number of bugs in the game and adds some new features. According to Keita Takahashi of Namco Bandai Games, “Honestly, debugging it was hard for multiplayer as it was a hotbed for bugs. So, if you run into a bug or two, please laugh that off. Since there are more silly updates aside from multiplay, I hope everyone has fun with the game as a whole.”
