Nintendo has released a new version 1.1.0 software update for ARMS, addressing bugs and introducing LAN and Arena modes in the Nintendo Switch exclusive.
LAN Play opens the way for official and local community tournaments, in allowing players to hook up multiple Nintendo Switch consoles.
Meanwhile, Arena mode lets up to four players join a lobby, where they will fight each other in one-on-one matches while the other players spectate.
