No. AdHoc Studio’s June 17, 2026 HR Violations update reduced some visual censorship in Dispatch on Switch, but the studio said Invisigal’s dream audio remained muted and genitalia remained censored. An earlier patch added music and ambience to the episode-four scene, but that is not confirmation that its dialogue or vocal audio was restored.

What the HR Violations update changed on Switch

AdHoc’s June 17, 2026 announcement said players in North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand could see more previously covered visual content, including breasts, buttocks, and obscene gestures. The studio also said genitalia remained censored and Invisigal’s dream audio remained muted. AdHoc attributed those restrictions to Nintendo requirements; this is the studio’s account, not a statement from Nintendo.

The update added optional visual censorship filters. AdHoc’s patch notes list the styles as Mosaic, Chaotic, and Blackout, accessible through Game Menu > General Settings > Filters. The notes say Switch remains partially censored and that coverage settings and availability vary by region. Read AdHoc’s patch history.

What happened to the dream scene’s audio

The initial Switch release

Nintendo Life reported on January 28, 2026, that the episode-four scene had no dialogue or vocal audio on Switch, even when profanity was enabled. Its report was later updated to say AdHoc patched in music and ambience. That change does not establish that the original vocal performance returned. Read Nintendo Life’s report.

AdHoc’s June statement

In its June announcement about the visual changes, AdHoc said the dream audio was still muted. The January report and June statement together show that music and ambience had been added earlier, while the later update did not, according to the studio, restore the dream audio. The sources do not verify whether a subsequent Switch patch changed the scene again.

How Switch compares with PC and PS5

AdHoc says uncensored content remains the default on PC and PS5, while the Switch version remains partially censored. The June changes expanded what some Switch players could see, but settings and content coverage vary by region. The cited sources do not establish identical settings across every platform or territory.

Why Switch differs

AdHoc said it initially prepared a single Switch build intended to satisfy the strictest regional rating after learning late in development that content had to be censored across regions. The studio apologized that it had not made the differences between the Switch version and other versions clear enough before purchase.

AdHoc described the remaining restrictions this way: “Ultimately, there are some hard requirements from Nintendo that we have to adhere to: genitalia censored, Invisigal’s dream audio muted.” The quotation is from AdHoc Studio’s June 17 announcement, not a statement by a Nintendo representative. In a January response quoted by Nintendo Life, AdHoc also said: “Different platforms have different content criteria, and submissions are evaluated individually. For our Switch release, we worked with Nintendo to adapt certain elements so Dispatch could be on their platform.”

What is confirmed—and what is not

  • The June 17 update loosened some Switch visual censorship and added optional filter styles.
  • AdHoc said the dream audio remained muted in June; an earlier patch had added music and ambience to the scene.
  • The official patch history lists Switch version 1.0.17878 on July 14, 2026, but does not document a later restoration of the dream audio. Check AdHoc’s patch history.
