Hacking "A software update is required" but I can't solve it

[Mactaetus]

I have a question regarding a game which I've updated. Been trying to find answers here and on discords but couldn't find any prior to posting. That, for the record.

I'm on Switch SXOS 6.1.0. I've updated a game with a current patch. What's weird is, that the game icon now appears twice. One with a cloud (which prompts me to re-download the game through eshop) and the second one the actual game.
The patch and game version come from the same rls group. Alas, not working.

---
Starting icon one it prompts me with "Software update is required" and doesn't let me start the title as usual. Only "download" and "cancel"

Starting icon two prompts me to redownload the software I've purchased through eshop.

---
Can anyone explain to me, what went wrong and why it's acting like that? and preferrably a solution?

Thanks so much

This is mostly XCI version and NSP versions of the same game. The update you have is not matching whichever (XCI or NSP) version you have for it. Maybe you got an XCI (Card game) converted to NSP (eShop) and you're using the update meant for the NSP. You could try and get the update for the converted XCI or just grab the NSP version of the base game?

Could be different regions

I tried everything. Got 4 different versions LOL.
I'll keep trying. I also thought it has something to do with the regions. I'll try and keep this post updated so others in the future can benefit from it.

Fixed it. Weird that a rls group releases an update for a game which doesnt work with their release of the game but with another one. stupid.
Thanks for the help. it was indeed the region
