Hello everyone. I finished the main story of Pokémon Sword and added the DLCs a few hours ago. Unfortunately once I try to access the new locations the game crashes. The animation plays, then as the loading screen shows up the FPS drops to 0 and that's it. The game is stuck.

I tried both Eden and Citron, while also tweaking settings left and right. I play on a S25 Ultra, I know there are no drivers for it but there is no way it just can't run.

Note that the rest of the game runs alright, it's just the DLC locations that don't work.

  • Okay never mind, Benji-NX can run it. Leaving this here in case someone runs into the same issue.

    If you have any performance issues with benji you can move the save back to eden

    Unfortunately I can't. Eden reads the save but gets stuck on the loading screen.

    Also Citron can't read it either. They just simply can't play the DLC.

    I had the dlc work on just eden before check your eden settings and settings accuracy to high and backend to opengl

    Unfortunately I couldn't run it. I changed the settings, I reinstalled Eden, re-added the DLC, all I haven't tried yet is rebooting the phone. Let me try it but I doubt it will help.

    Nope, did not help.

    Ask the eden discord as the dlcs do work on eden android

    But if benji is running fine use that

    Well they ignored me and many other servers just outright refuse to help to avoid issues with big N. Also I managed to run the save file from Benji but once I loaded another one where I already had Zacian I couldn't acces the island again.

  • Strange I play on s25 Ultra and it works fine on Citra latest build. I made it half way into the first dlc.

    Trust me I don't get it either. I just opened the save file that I had on Benji in Citra. I started on the island and it actually loaded and I could play. But once I loaded the most recent save where I have Zacian and tried to acces the island again it just does the thing I posted. I updated to the latest version on the website but I strongly believe it's the same build I had the whole time. It's annoying. I just moved on to Violet.
