Level-5 is showing no signs of slowing down the Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time updates, and the latest patch has gone live today.

The ver. 2.1.0 update is now available on Switch and Switch 2. This one includes a new "high-difficulty" boss battle, bonus Dream Quests, fresh items and much more. Naturally, there's a bunch of balance adjustments and bug fixes, too.

Level-5 has since updated things further to ver. 2.1.1 on PlayStation, Xbox and Steam, and it has confirmed that this follow-up patch will arrive on Switch systems "at a later date".

But back to what's new on Switch. The full ver. 2.1.0 patch notes were shared on the Fantasy Life website, and we have gathered them together for you to check out below.
