Deathloop Releases First Major Post-Launch Update, Patch Notes Revealed

Deathloop released a little over a month ago across PlayStation 5 and PC platforms, but since that time, developer Arkane Studios hasn't let loose any substantial updates for the title. However, that trend finally came to an end this week as the studio released the first post-launch patch for the title. 

This new update for Deathloop, which is live across all platforms, brings a number of substantial changes to the first-person action-adventure game. As you would expect with a new update of this type, Arkane has rectified a number of lingering bugs and other problems that have started to show up for some players. In addition, more options for certain features have also been added across both platforms that the title is available. 

As a whole, this update for Deathloop is available to download right now on PS5 and PC. The former size of the update weighs in at 5GB, while the latter is said to be 11GB in total.
