Axios reporter Stephen Totilo previously found that Nintendo has applied for a patent for a minimap in the game to optimize the player's experience when looking for directions. Foreign media speculated that the patent would be used for the future release of "Sprasson 3".
The Spratly series is characterised by coloring and shooting, and the arena is often filled with colours. This confrontation game also has a special minimap setting, which is convenient for players to locate themselves.
On the other hand, the interface of the patented map is very similar to the mini-maps in the Sprasaki series. Coupled with the fact that Spratio 3 will be released in the summer of 2022, this new patent may be used in this new Spratly game.
The patent itself is intended to improve on the shortcomings of the existing mechanism: small proportions of terrain are difficult to identify, and it is difficult to represent height differences. A text in the patent document states that the design under the patent not only makes it easier for players to understand where they are, but also to discover the location of useful items and other important areas on the map.
At present, we do not know the use of this patent, and perhaps after the release of Sprason 3, we will be able to see more new changes in content.
