Pokemon Shield Switch Nsp Xci Dlc Update 132 Install
To install the Pokémon Shield version 1.3.2 update along with its DLC (The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra) on your Nintendo Switch, you need to manage three distinct components: the base game, the update file, and the DLC expansion files. Required Files & Version Info
: Includes minor "under the hood" adjustments to improve the overall gameplay experience. DLC Compatibility : This version remains fully compatible with the Expansion Pass (Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra). Files and Installation (NSP/XCI)
Remember: respect the developers. If you enjoy the game, consider buying an official copy and the Expansion Pass. But for those managing their own backups and custom firmware, version 1.3.2 represents the definitive Pokémon Shield experience—no stone left unturned, no Pokémon left undiscovered.
Ava's adventure in Pokémon Shield was just beginning, and with the 1.3.2 update installed, she was ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead.
1. Background and file types
- NSP: Nintendo Submission Package — installable package format used by Nintendo eShop content and updates for systems running custom firmware or via official recovery/service.
- XCI: Cartridge dump format — direct image of game cartridges; typically used with custom firmware and loader tools.
- DLC: Additional content packages (often NSP) that expand games (e.g., costumes, events).
- Updates/Patches: Versioned patches (e.g., 1.3.2) supplied as NSP or as update files inside XCI toolchains. Updates alter game code and may enable compatibility with new features or online services.
Install NSP File:
- Use a loader (Hekate + USB loader or SXOS-like loaders) to mount/run XCI directly from microSD.
- To apply updates/DLC, either convert update/DLC NSPs into the correct format or install updates via an NSP installer; some loaders support layered updates.
Automatic Update: If connected to the internet, the console will download this automatically when you launch the game. Manual Update: Highlight the Pokémon Shield icon on the Home Menu. Press the + or - Button. Select Software Update > Via the Internet. 3. Installing the Expansion Pass (DLC) The DLC includes The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra
Ensure your microSD card is formatted to FAT32. While exFAT is supported by the Switch, it is notorious for data corruption when using homebrew applications. Ensure your
PROD.KEYSare up to date on your SD card so the installer can decrypt the newer update files. Step 2: Transferring Files You have two main ways to get the files onto your Switch: - IT Services
