There’s another patch coming next week, too

Thev1.01 patch notesdetail problems addressed today. It includes fixes for start-up crashes, a bug stopping some players from being able to save their game, and more. It also improved diagnostics for reporting crashes, which should help them get to the bottom of remaining issues.

As Katharine found out first hand, the game has also suffered problems with things including anisotropic filtering and framerate stuttering. Guerrilla say they’re still looking into those, among other issues, and do warn that this patch has not fixed all the crashes. They expect to release another patch next week, though they haven’t yet confirmed what that update will fix.

If you’re still finding problems that aren’t mentioned in Guerrilla’s post, you can report them over ontheir website.

Despite the technical difficulties some suffer, Nate gave the game an RPS Bestest Best award in hisHorizon Zero Dawn review, saying “it’s one of the best adventures you can go on inside a telly, and one of the most beautiful, too.” And Katharine’sHorizon Zero Dawn benchmarksshow the game does run pretty well when it’s not misbehaving.
