ARMS’ Version 5.2 Update Adds Party Crash Mode “Big Time ARMS” To Its Regular Battles

Recommended Videos

Just when we thought that ARMS wouldn’t be getting much more in terms of updates after its final big update in 5.0, Nintendo released the game’s 5.2 update that adds Party Crash Mode “Big Time ARMS” to regular battles.

 

Here are the details from Nintendo’s full patch notes:

  • The Party Crash mode “Big Time ARMS” can now be selected in regular battle as well, so you can try something a little different. Feel free to use it as a handicap!
    • Prior to battle, when selecting ARMS, you can toggle this on and off with the Y button.
    • This feature can be used in Versus – Fight.
    • Can’t be used in online battles.
  • Added 15 new images to Gallery.
  • Fixed issue where fighters with super armor would not have their ARMS disabled by electric attacks during a rush attack.
  • Fixed issue where a noise would repeatedly play if communication was lost while Dr. Coyle had her extra ARMS out.

 

Below are notes on adjustments for fighters and Arms:
