Remember Morphies Law? The intriguing, body mass-changing shooter that surprise-launched on the Switch eShop last year? Well, it looks like the game's finally about to receive its long-anticipated update to fix all those pesky launch issues.
If you read through our review at the time or tried the game out for yourself, you'll likely know that it suffered from various performance and structural problems, not to mention a lack of player presence online leaving lobbies rather bare. Back in October, the developers announced that lots of new content was coming in order to "make a big splash", hopefully fixing the game's problems and enticing players back in.
Now, developer Cosmoscope has announced a beta test for the game's new Version 2.0, which is apparently "fast approaching". If you sign up (the beta test is taking place on PC) you'll earn limited-time in-game rewards which can be transferred to your Switch version of the game, all while helping the team ensure that the patch is truly ready to go.
"Hello Morphies! We think that 2.0 is pretty much ready, but we’d like you to prove us wrong…
We want to put Morphies Law to the test and we need you to help us find those things that we might have missed.
We’ll be doing this on PC, and those who help will get in-game rewards! There will be multiple events on PC, and we’ll invite additional people to each of them."
While taking part in the beta, players are encouraged to share any bugs or glitches with the team by tweeting #breakmorphieslaw to @MorphiesLaw. Some lucky players will be chosen to win a free Steam key for the game when it launches on PC.
Will you be signing up? Are you still optimistic that this shooter can become something great? Tell us below.

Will that patch add an apostrophe?
I think anyone who got this game on day of release should get those beta rewards anyway
Start with a local split screen then you can have my attention and maybe my wallet later...
I thought this game was dead nice to see the devs still working on it
Wow. I pretty much forgot this even existed. The game is not even a year old yet, but it feels like it launched 3 years ago and then was forgotten about.
Sounds like It’s going the way of Lawbreakers and Hopefully those who find the appeal to this are hopping on
I'm gonna be honest here, the entire appeal of this game fell apart for me when I learned about the butt rocket thing. A shame since the game did look pretty fun. But hey glad it's being supported more for the fans.
If the report is that they patch indeed does fix things then I will buy it. I’ve been waiting.
As a day one buyer I gotta say that I feel like I got the shaft big time. I was never once able to enjoy a full game even on launch day. Waiting a year for the game to “be better” is lame. Double lame is that in game special bonuses are being given to PC owners for playing the beta. I gave them $20 a year ago and didn’t get a playable game.
The game is really interesting imho. I will try it when I can.
@Switchitup yes I second this
How is this not "free to start"? Or is it?
Is there at least a demo?
@smithpa01 It pretty much is though. I sat in matchmaking for over 30 min a few months ago, didn't find a single person to play against...
@ninjapenguin1 it's a shame it looked so promising
@holygeez03 No and no to both of your questions. I would like that it got Yes for both though.
1080p 60fps patch?
That took a while......
@mercilessrobot
While I can't say that I feel as cheated as you do, I do understand. I was able to play full games and get matches, but you're right. Some of us supported them from day one and put our money where our mouth was. So we for sure should be getting some of that love instead of it only being for beta testers and such.
If they can fix this game, I'd probably make a purchase.
