"You create a floating, spectral force that resembles a weapon of your choice and lasts for the duration. The force appears within range in a space of your choice, and you can immediately make one melee spell attack against one creature within 5 feet of the force. On a hit, the target takes Force damage equal to 1d8 plus your spellcasting ability modifier.
As a Bonus Action on your later turns, you can move the force up to 20 feet and repeat the attack against a creature within 5 feet of it.
Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot. The damage increases by 1d8 for every slot level above 2."
Using a higher level spell slot is incorrect, the damages increases by 1d8 for every TWO slot levels above 2
In that case, the damage dice on the spell are incorrect, as they only increase every two spell slots. Level 3 spell for my 2024 cleric still shows 1d8 - if that wording change is right, then I should have 2d8 there.

This is not an error. This is a change to the spell that was made in the 2024 Player's Handbook.
